One way to Treat our Addiction to Oil

"America is Addicted to Oil", [president*] Bush says.

"If the exemption of SUVs from fleet mileage standards were ended and fleet gas mileage in the U.S. were to increase by a tiny 3 miles per gallon, we'd no longer need to import any oil from the Middle East!"

-- Thom Hartmann, "We the People"


You know, since the 1970's we've all known that the world is going to run out of fuel. Why, then, do people drive these huge gas-guzzlers around? I believe it is due to the exotic combination of personal irresponsibility and a mindless, corrupt public policy, but that's just me, of course.

*Swore an oath to defend the Constitution and he's NOT DOING IT. Read the Bill of Rights and see what YOU think.
