So then using your logic, abortion is illegal. Gee, I wonder why the Bush justice department never prosecuted abortionists if that was the intent or affect of the law?
Setting the stage for more double murder cases which would lead to stronger case law to establish the legal status of a fetus (child)? Your guess is as good as mine at this point. This world has turned upside down if you ask me.
America uses 18,690,000 bbl/day (http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/ene_oil_con-energy-oil-consumption).
We have 2.855 trillion barrels. (http://247wallst.com/2011/08/31/the-ten-largest-oil-deposits-in-the-world/)
If I have it figured correctly thats 160 thousand years of oil reserves. Why are we buying oil from other countries?
