Democracy Waning has been thinking... We as a country have too many ties to middle east oil. We need to control our own oil future and we need to do it now. There is a way for us to become energy independent while sticking it to OPEC.

We have to think in a new way about our oil .Think outside the box.

America has lots of oil reserves, off our coast, in Alaska and shale oil deposits in the Northwest.

Oil companies are willing to dig, drill and squeeze those oil reserves out and then sell them on the open market. We as Americans get some tax breaks or oil royalties from the sale of that oil but we have to buy back our own oil at world market prices. Hey its our oil! Why should we only get a share when America should get the lion's share? Why can't we develop those oil fields for us and by us (FUBU) just like the famous international company that started with hats and people from the hood. Its our oil lets use it for us instead of against us.



I suggest that America begin to develop in its own interest. There are oil companies who could be hired to drill the oil refine it and distribute it to America.

Once the oil is refined I suggest that we use our resources to fuel us. Hospitals, emergency vehicles, schools, municipal vehicles the poor, and our military all subsidized by our own oil. We could give it to them at a rate that pays for the development and distribution. certainly under a dollar a gallon price.

Now here is the best part. when we fuel all these interest we decrease the demand for world oil. Opec, Mexico , Venezuela. All will have a glut of oli that they cant sell at $100.00 dollars a barrel . The can't eat Oil! Their prices will have to drop. The rest of the world benefits and we are no longer under the cartel's thumb for energy. By doing this we take control of our supply and demand. No more war for oil.

The oil companies will vie for the chance to dig Americas fuel. They all know there is still lots money to be made in this venture and by regulating them we can protect against oil spills and still protect our environment.

The money we save on foreign oil can also help us to begin to develop our way out of fossil fuels. With my plan America can take control of it's own destiny again.

Democracy Waning says" let them eat Oil!!"

Peace Out!
