Even if you’re a hard-hearted soul who doesn’t care whether or note we trash the planet, you should certainly care about the economic and national security costs of our “addiction” to oil. And remember, oil is traded in a world market, so it doesn’t matter if we directly import from crazy Ahmedinejad; every time we fill up our vehicles, it’s another “fungible” drop consumed, and some of that money goes to Iran’s nuclear weapons program, Al Qaeda, the Bin Laden family, etc. Think about that for a minute, then call your Senators and tell them to vote for comprehensive, clean energy and climate legislation ASAP!
