Bottom line, wean ourselves of our dependency on foreign oil. Sooner or later, we are going to have to do this, anyhow. This is pragmatism, not tree hugging. Oil is a limited commodity. One day, there will be no more of it. No more dinosaurs are currently giving their lives to become fuel for our power plants and automobiles. One of the greatest atrocities the Reagan administration committed was to dismantle our alternative fuels program. If we weren't so dependent on Middle Eastern oil, none of this crap would have happened. The Brits and Palestinians could have duked it out over the creation of Israel and the US could have remained oblivious to the entire Middle East problem.
