It’s ridiculous to call our use of oil an “addiction.” This is sloganeering at its worst. We are not more “addicted” to oil than we are “addicted” to food.
Exactly, I can't stand the idiotic talking point on this as an “addiction”.
Oil and the petrochemical industry have basically made the incredible advance of modern life possible in this country. These idiots think it's just something you put in your car. Oil is all around us in virtually everything we come in contact with and depend on daily.
