I postulate keeping "our" oil in the ground as long as possible. We should use other countries' oil first, and only then turn to using our reserves. The high prices of oil are - in a sense - good for us: they will force more conservation, and in general, more frugal style of life. And that's good.

This is easy, as the only two known direct factors in price (in constant dollars) of a commodity is (1) supply and demand and (2) governmental regulations. Everything else either impacts the supply or demand (e.g., geopolitical instability or cartel agreements) or is an amplifying factor for the supply/demand trend (e.g., market speculation).

It is well documented that the decrease in crime correlates mostly to the probability of punishment, and only in a very insignificant degree to the severity of punishment. Since carrying out the death penalty is an extremely low probability event, it is, rignt now, not an effective crime deterrent.
