I'll tell you why. The decision was made back in the 70's to make sure
our country had some for the future, and in the meantime, we decided to
buy oil from the rest of the world. Deplete their reserves, which were
much larger than ours. I have been out of touch with the industry for
more than 20 years, so I have no idea about the current state of
affairs.
It was also decided we would use all those smarts to make more fuel
efficient cars, furnaces, and decrease our consumption to improve our
chances at survival in the case of a world war, with the reserves
waiting for some future day's need.
Ode is correct about how insane it is for people to drive those gas
guzzling SUV's in the name of safety (big joke, it was not a big
problem before) when it is really just an ego trip, and putting our own
desires before what I have seen as a national security issue for our
grandkids.
This was inevitable.

The government is 3 steps ahead of us, not 3 steps behind. You have to
realize who the government is, they don't get elected. What are they
doing with all that oil up in Alaska, that we'll never see??? That's
the 4th largest oil deposit in the world and it's just sitting there,
why? The largest is in Suadi, second largest is Iraq. Want to take a
guess at where the 3rd largest oil deposit is?? You know, the ones we
are going to blast next-Iran.

Ode,
Please... I mean get real my friend. Nobody buys fluoridated
water,
it was mandated by criminal elements within our own government. Lead
paint was illegal BEFORE the recent recalls. Consumers had no way of
knowing there was lead in the paint on their kids toys... the
governments
job it to PROTECT the consumer, and they have failed miserably on
almost
all fronts.
## The public has failed to fund the consumer protection agency so
that
it CAN do that job.
Water consumption averages around 40 gallons per person, but 2
gallons is
plenty [especially when you pack it up a hill from the spring on your
back]
and can be bought elsewhere.
