is it let's quit using oil tomorrow? next year? 5 years? 10 years? 20 years? 30 years?
i think the later. at that time and along the way we will use much less. but what i truely believe that having a total solution has to involve the production of oil since there are 250 million passenger cars and light weight trucks on the road today.
we as a nation have suppprted, protected, and rebuilt most of the civilized world twice. what should our role be today?
should we drill? should we walk? should we…

i have devised a plan to cut our dependency to foreign oil. it's called "25 Barrels A Troup". we have 150,000 troups [approx.] in iraq. at 25 barrels a troup we would reduce our oil imports by 3.75 milliom barrels a day. may sound kinda hokie but it has substance. but most of all it would bring our troups home. something we really need to do. and now that oil has plunged in price it would have the double whammy effect. rich oil countries have lived fat off of us too long. we just need to drill f…

honestly we tend[as citizens] to look at america from the outside in. so i guess that we are looking at ourselves. well it's time to to take a good long look. let down our defenses and just look.
we have become a society that if we don't already have enough that someone should give us more. america has always been a giving country to help the world as a whole. but our government wasn't set up to support us all. if it were it would be socialism. and that is a proven path for failure. but then aga…

i hate to harp on it but high oil prices are opec's enemy. we use 14 million barrels a day for transportation. so the quickest and most effective way to cut our oil use is in transportation. hybrids do some good. but they can't go fast enough yet to really make a difference. the gas engine kicks in at 35 mph. mundane. now a totally electric car that could 60 and have any range at all might work. but we are not there for the masses. making electricity w/ solar, wind, and bio tech are great. biofu…

i truely believe we are making a difference. speculation is starting to ease. but what people need to understand there was reason for speculation.for a period asia and india had such sustained growth opec was even caught of guard. there wasn't a shortage but there wasn't any extra either. but one thing you have to remember is now that opec is gearing up to meet world demand any little drop in this growth will create drastic changes in price. i said repeatedly high oil prices are opec worst enemy…

i want to the library this was a no brainer. my answer?
waking up in the morning know i could do, say, or be w/in reason what i wanted to. i think it is called freedom.…

up until 1971 the texas railroad commission[Tx. Ok., La.] pretty much kept a handle on oil prices. until that time we were opperating at 80%. the went 100% proration[drill as much as you want]. at that time we lost the ability to increase prodution. thus we lost the ability to keep if you would say a slush so if needed we could step up shipments and replace as we did. even worse this ability to control prices shifted to the opec nations. first of all opec is a cartel. each country has a quota. a…
