350 Million Barrels of Oil Imported in October
The United States imported 350 million barrels of oil in October! That was 60% of the oil used by the USA, The USA has 5% of the worlds population and uses 25% of the worlds oil.
We need to make some changes, just think how much the oil embargo cost us when we only imported 20% of our oil, man wouldn't that hurt if we suddenly had 60% turned off??
The switch to natural gas vehicles and American alternatives make sense before our own consumption does us in by our enemys!! Its not a matter of if, but of when??
