Failing to heed the warning of the first energy crisis in the 1970s we have blindly and stupidly kept to the course of consuming fossil fuels without any regard to the finite nature of those resources. Now the clock has run out. Peak oil is not a theory as many would like to believe. It's a reality. And it's here, now. While the worthless idiots along the Potomac engage in witchhunt hearings, pointing fingers at the oil companies and speculators*, millions cheer for their favorite, clueless presidential candidate, neither of whom have anything resembling a coherent energy policy. Meanwhile we draw ever nearer the abyss.
We need to immediately draft an energy plan, and we need to implement that plan aggresively. The consequences if we fail to do so are almost too terrible to contemplate. It's high time for America to get off its collective fat ass and work together to solve this problem.
One person who does understand the problem and has a sound plan for extricating us from this mess is T. Boone Pickens: http://www.pickensplan.com/

*Do you own a 401K? How about an IRA? Have you ever bought a stock or a bond? Well then, by definition, you are a "speculator." Congress is proposing legislation to ban oil speculation altogether. Do you think we should also ban retirement accounts? Just an example of the kind of stupidity being brandished on Capitol Hill on a daily basis.

Drill Alaska, the pacific, the Gulf, and other states. We also need refineries in the USA. Witch hunt...It is the neo-communist progressives and all the false teaching demonizing Oil. Crude oil saved the whale my fellow environmentalists! DRILL..Clearly Drill and refine it in the USA. In California where they talk Environment they refuse to buy solar or wind gen power created by citizen home units...The agenda is a weakening of America in order to take over and dictate social engineering.
