We can still be in the oil business but learn to stretch it a whole lot further. Some oil companies are getting into researching and developing alternative sources.
It's just like the car companies, if we don't look ahead, we could find other countries way ahead of us. It is essential for our economy and well being as a whole not to be so dependent on Middle Eastern Oil.
Oil is a finite resource, and dirties the environment and air we breathe. A car that gets 50 mph dirties the air less.
Did you hear the latest salary of the Exxon Ceo? Highest ever; absolutely sinful amount IMO. It's good they help the schools; but it's my understanding they never paid the fisherman back what they were due after the Valdez incident.
