Wrong. America has repeatedly shown that when crunch time comes, we WILL find a way to get the job done, no matter what the obstacles. If push comes to shove and we're asked to do with less oil so that we can wage war properly, we'll do it. We'll install solar, we'll consume less, we'll carpool, we'll give more business to corporations that are doing the best job of avoiding using petroleum products, we'll drill the heck out of any oil-head within 1000 miles of our shores, we'll find workable substitutes, we'll share home remedies with friends and strangers alike...
In short, we'll do what it takes to stick it up their @$$e$, until we win and we take over whatever resources we want as a reward for our sacrifices.
