JPhilly Sophomore Author San Antonio Posts:137 Points:588,455 Joined:Sep 2005	Message Posted: Jul 9, 2006 4:43:06 AM Ignore JPhilly Report Abuse Rationing is a technique used when there is a need to assure a more fair means of distributing something that is in short supply. There is no oil shortage; therefore, there is no need for rationing.
