umm.... if we spread that 2% over 30 years we could actually go 100% independent... the danger is that we would be out of oil at the time, and if we don't have any permant energy solutions we are screwed. I say we stretch it out over 75 years and make a good dent in our indepence.
Besides, it would help our economy.Right now we are sending 700 billion dollars a year into other countries economies... imagine if we left it in the US...
