Quote from Maverick74:
Dave, we already have $20 oil. It's called natural gas. Well, 21.50 to be exact at current quoted prices. That's how much nat gas you need to produce the same amount of energy as oil. So why don't we switch over? You'll have to ask Barry. Something about an endangered frog...
There was never an energy shortage in this country to begin with. What we have is a <b>portable energy shortage</b>, forcing us to import nine million barrels of foreign oil every single day. Until the day comes when our vehicles run on anything but gasoline, our money will continue to be sucked straight out of our pockets and into the hands of untrustworthy foreigners.
