Let them live without ALL oil-based products, not just fuel.

Then call it and Oil-Free Economy.

They would then learn the value of oil isn't just for its fuels.

Oil is just a bunch of hydrocarbons that can be found/made elsewhere (seed oils, whale oil, etc.). There is no such thing as an oil free economy.

I have thrown down a challenge to many a liberal and anyone who claims we need to eliminate oil.

Feel free to make this offer yourself to anyone you like. The chances of losing are slim to none.

The Oil Free Challenge.

Go 48 consecutive hours without utilizing petroleum.

That is it. No strings. No catches.

If you succeed I will donate $1,000 to the charity of your choice, or give you $500 cash.

But, being that I can not be there to observe your 48 hours of petroleum free living, you will need to document the time to prove you have succeeded in meeting the challenge.

Oh, and since I am putting something up, the person who accepts the challenge must as well. $500 to the charity of my choice, or $250 cash to me.

Good luck!


I have yet to get someone to accept the challenge. When they refuse to accept the challenge, ask them how the expect the entire country to do it if they can't do it for 2 days.

Exactly. I look at my house, all the goods within it, my vehicle, my recreational toys, everything.....and I can't find one thing that doesn't have something to do with oil.

I assume it's the same for the No-Drill Hypocrites...if they took a few minutes to think about it...but that might hurt.
