Ah, but see...we're Americans... who refuse to pay more money for electirc cars and can't stand the thought of slowing down to the speed of an electric car. The phrase "nuclear power plant" drives fear into the hearts of most Americans. The cost of solar energy and wind energy makes most Americans scoff.
Until we get out of the "must use oil" mindset and into an alternative energy mindset (which the oil companies DON'T want), we're going to have all our fingers in the Middle Eastern pie.
