People who hate us (Muslims, Putin, Hugo Chavez) are enriched because people who hate us (Environmentalists, Democrats, Liberals) are empowered.

I think it’s more complicated than that.

The real big problem is, not only are people who hate us enriched by our addiction to oil.

So also, are people who influence our government, and our industry.

That’s the real problem. So much money is at stake, policy is influenced by ... people whose fortunes are dependent on America continuing, to make bad choices.

Well said.
