A new author has indicated a Solution to High Oil Prices:  Break OPEC’s Control.

 The record oil prices have now led to record prices for gas at the pump, Dr. Robert Zubrin says that OPEC is to blame and the way to beat them is to break their monopoly by creating fuel choice on a global scale.
 

Zubrin stated The way to do it is to require that all new cars sold in the United States be flex fuel vehicles that can run on any combination of gasoline, ethanol or methanol. The technology is readily available and it only costs about $100 per vehicle. 

Around the world, gasoline would be forced to compete at the pump against alcohol fuels made from any number of sources, including not only crops like corn and sugar, but cellulosic ethanol made from crop residues and weeds, as well as methanol, which can be made from any kind of biomass as well as coal, natural gas, and recycled urban trash.  

Dr. Robert Zubrin, is a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. a leading proponent of the plan and author of Energy Victory: Winning the War on Terror by Breaking Free of Oil, is a professional in relation to  

  • Food prices and ethanol
  • Rising Gas Prices
