| Lynx said: I personally am quite concerned about how Obama is treating this situation. It almost appears that he is far more concerned in passing radical litigation, at least for a majority of the U.S. populace, my using the oil spill as a motivation and rational. As members of his officials have put it "A crisis is a terrible thing to waste". The best laws are not passed quickly and haphazardly. |
The US should be spending every spare dime it has (I know, not many right now) on getting off of oil. There are 3 major reasons to get off of oil:
1) A lot of money goes to people that don't like the US very much.
2) Oil is a limited resource and there will be less and less of it in the future.
3) The climatological impact of producing enery using oil.
Is there anyone out there that doesn't agree with at least one of these? It says alot about the current political situation in the US when something this obvious that just about everyone agrees with still can't get accomplished.
