For far too long, America has been without a comprehensive energy plan, and today consumers are paying the price - literally - at the pump and in their heating bills.

Americans are also feeling the effects of soaring energy prices at the gas pump. The double burden of these added expenses will be far too much for many families.

There is no free market for oil.

The fact is I've been in Massachusetts for the last two weeks, and it seems over the last few days that the price is increasing by the hour at the pump, so there needs to be an aggressive investigation.

There is no free market in oil.

Because, you know, I can't work a bicycle pump.

The marketers can compete with free; it just has to be better. Look at bottled water if you don't believe me.

None of the people who wrote Obamacare want anything to do with it. None of the people responsible for Obamacare can afford it. They all want subsidies. None of the people that gave us Obamacare have any desire to actually go to HealthCare.gov and sign up. That's for you and me to have to do.

The prices are ridiculous... I don't see how people can go back and forth to work or to school. How can we afford the gas?

Americans are paying for our lack of an energy policy with their jobs and out of their pocketbooks.
