WASHINGTON - Decrying near-record high gasoline prices, the House voted Tuesday to allow the government to sue OPEC over oil production quotas.The White House objected, saying that might disrupt supplies and lead to even higher costs at the pump. The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries is the cartel that accounts for 40 percent of the world’s oil production.

“We don’t have to stand by and watch OPEC dictate the price of gas,” Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers (news, bio, voting record), D-Mich., the bill’s chief sponsor, declared, reflecting the frustration lawmakers have felt over their inability to address people’s worries about high summer fuel costs.

This is their answer? This is how they are going to bring down oil and gas prices? What about expanding drilling in the United States and off shore and increasing supply? What about stopping the assault on refiners and helping smooth the way for more capacity to be built? You know that would go a lot further towards your stated goal doing those things than suing someone.

But then again, these crackpots don’t ever realize that their understanding of economics is about as poor as Karl Marx’s.
