[QUOTE="soberups, post: 555714, member: 14668"] So if everything we consume is in some way tied to fossil fuels...is it wise for us to continue importing 70% of those fuels? Every time we spend $100 on a barrel of imported oil...that is $100 that is leaving our economy and heading overseas. Imagine how much stronger our economy would be if that $100 were instead being spent here in America, putting Americans to work producing alternative fuels instead of enriching some shiek from the Middle East. There will come a point where fossil fuels will no longer be available at any price. All the money in the world cannot buy something that doesnt exist. Our survival as a nation depends upon being self-sufficient for our own energy need when that day comes. It is coming soon and we are nowhere near being ready. [/QUOTE]
