Oh darn, another star lined up against us that I should have listed. You couldn't be more right. BUT, it's not just all about oil or energy. It's how we treated all our natural resources. In the informal economics class I'm in the "professor" (we call him the professor), says that one of the main the reasons America has the economy it does is that we had such a vast untapped source of resources. Farmland and oil and water and minerals. But our political system has allowed them to be exploited at an alarming unsustainable rate. So now we buy them from others or the ones available to us are more costly. ........And as I write this there is another star lined up against us - GW. It didn't have to be a star lined up against us - we allowed it to be.
