Addicted To Oil? - True Or Not

One of the leftist environmentalist's mantra is that we are addicted to oil. True or not? It all depends on how you look at it. We do consume more than anyone else but we also produce more goods and services than anyone. We are still the economic engine that drives the world.

We are no more addicted to oil than we are to other life necessities like food and water. What we are addicted to is foreign oil. And we can thank the leftist Democratic party and the leftist environmentalists.

We will continue to use oil as we transition to a mix of alternative fuels/energy; clean coal, nuclear, wind, solar, etc. Let's just make sure that we produce and use our own oil. Let's create jobs and prosperity for American workers. Let's put a downward pressure on oil prices. Let's stop sending our money overseas. (Tim)
