That Sounds good, but people dont even know what it costs to do that. WE could have vehicles that deliver much better MPG, produce our own fuels, & have a healthy economy,, its a corrupt system that is keeping all that from happening,
Who protects the Saudis? Who pays to protect the oil tankers? Add that to the cost of oil, which THEY produce for Far less $$$/barrel than we do.,,
Have you looked at the price of oil at the store? Ive been buying gallons of 15/40 for years. Gas? Gas goes Up & Down,, all because the price of "Oil" goes up & down,, & the 15/40? Its been right on $13.00 for the last few years,, There are more paper barrels of oil sold daily than there are real barrels of oil, Markets are manipulated,, accidentally or intentionally, doesnt matter. People speculating on the futures market affect what we pay at the pumps.

In Saudi Arabia the average oil well doent have a pump jack on it, it just has a valve. The gas pressure in the top of the dome drives the oil up the production tubing,

Here we go again.... do we want this to happen?

I like how they say "cannot be verified"... like our awac's or satellites hanging over the area can see a rocket being launched. Hell we can read what it says on an ID card from up there and we can't verify that a 300 ton missile just took off?
