The world NEEDS oil...the world doesn't exist without oil...we use about 100 million barrels of oil a day...that's 4,200,000,000 gallons a DAY.

The problem is getting it out fast enough. The thin "sweet" oil has all been sucked up. We're left with old "dried up" wells that we have to frack. We're left with drilling in the arctic, out in the cold oceans, through 10 miles of water.

Alternative energy is pushed because we MUST find something to replace oil within about 50 years. The world's population keeps growing the demand for oil keeps growing. A billion Chinese want to live just like you and me...they CAN'T.

"Their solution"? Bring US down to their level. It's already happening...America IS 51% minorities and the standard of living is falling.
