While oil consumption in most industrialized nations has either leveled off or declined, in the United States, oil demand has soared 38 percent since the first oil shock of 1973.

How much has our population grown since 1973?

My energy plan:

Remove enviro impediments to domestic exploration and construction of new refineries.
End designer fuels, allow just one summer fuel and one winter fuel
Build Nukes!
Encourage more diesels
