Rock, part of the blame must lie with extremist liberal special interest groups that constantly block the development of additional energy sources like offshore drilling, nuclear, and wind generated farms, refineries, etc., for political reasons. Every major attempt to incorporate new technologies to exploit inexpensive energy sources has met with litigation sponsored by these radical organizations. In effect they are chaining us to oil because of their actions. The US has the capability to produce abundant and inexpensive energy that could significantly reduce our dependence on hydrocarbon fuels, but every attempt to do so is met with significant political and legal opposition. The problem is not only big business infrastructure or government. Special interest groups are hindering our energy development potential. It is up to the government(read that as the US population majority) to use its resources to drive improvements and developments with favorable incentives and political support.
