(!@#$ the spelling, don’t read this then)
I'm having a hard time dealing with this ANWAR thing. Its not the problem, we can get enough oil if we want.
We brought the middle east into the 21 (or 22 century, depending on who you believe) It was in our best interest to do that. The big three had the capabilities of developing a much better car, more fuel efficient. Wasn’t gonna happen. Just think of the jobs that could be lost due to a car that got 30MPG back in the 70's, or a car that had a set of plugs last longer than 15 or 25 thousand miles. In the grand scheme of things, the global plan was for the middle east to catch up, while sustaining our economy at the same time. There is enough oil to bring us into the 22 century and beyond, we're just 50 years behind..........
