That is because I wrote it so poorly. What I was trying to say is I do not agree with the concept of paying other countries for more and more decades while we sit on our own. Alternative fuels and sources of petroleum are being developed. Fields like ANWR take time to bring to market. I do not believe we can determine market values and changing technology well enough to postpone our own oil production and still achieve maximum value. We just continue to build other countries up while we them send our cash.
Dear thackney,
"We just continue to build other countries up while we them send our cash."
Indeed, and at current prices, we're sending them about $850 million per DAY. That's over $300 BILLION per year.
