re: The people making the decision to enter the war didn't think it would be a $400bil war. (It isn't close to a trillion yet). They wouldn't have done if we were oil independent... you have to know that. And it doesn't have to be close to $Trillion; much of the cost comes after the war in replacing equipment and caring for the injured. The experts say well over one $trillion. re: Also even if we didn't import oil, threats to its supply would still be a MAJOR concern. It would be a major upside assuming we could export some of ours. re: Your mention of it is a red herring. Well your point was so dumb it wasn't worth taking seriously.
