Millions of Americans are profiting from them. All that money isn't going overseas, a lot of it is piling up in retirement accounts of normal, (well, as normal as a piano tech can be), people. The better they do, perhaps, the less hardship we might face in our dotage. If the citizens of this country would reduce their driving by 5%, we would soon be swimming in gasoline, and the prices would begin to fall, rapidly.
