We need that oil to control our own destiny. There is one hitch though. Even if we are able to increase our own oil supply, who's to say that OPEC won't then reduce their own output to hold on to their own supply and maintain prices? Strictly speaking for automotive purposes, we need to get off of this Ethanol binge and get on the n-Butanol from diatoms bandwagon. It can completely replace gasoline in cars, and it would be much cheaper to ship than Ethanol because unlike Ethanol, it can be moved through the pipelines currently used for oil production. Best of all, it can be manufactured entirely in the good ol' USA. I'm just glad that my embarrassment of a Senator Lindsey Graham finally did something right and voted in favor of offshore drilling.
