[QUOTE="Campground Cattle, post: 214287, member: 195"] No you just want to line your pockets. Importing more oil is not good for us or our children. I want my grandchildren not to be held hostage by foreign interest as I just got a son back from fighting so you can continue to consume fuel without any reguards to the consequences. I spent 30 plus years in the oil industry and anything that requires us to import more is bad for the USA and makes the country I love more vunerable to our enimies. If we come with a completely new fuel tomorrow we would still need refining for products from plastic to medicine. We produce 8 million barrels of crude a day and thats where our appetite needs to be not at the 17 million barrels a day. That means we have to import 378,000,000 million gallons currently, with your solution we would have to import 578,000,000 gallons to make up todays foreign import to convert your corn to fuel to line your pocket along with OPEC. While this even gets worse as ethanol is not as effiecent as our current fuel and it would require us to import more. Your solution is not good for our kids or our planet, I would like to think we are going to leave our kids and grandkids in a better postion than today. We have viable options out there today that do not have the pork barrel politics pushing us to use a worse fuel as ethanol. Like I have said we need nuclear, hydro, wind, biodiesel(has some problems to overcome) as these reduce foreign dependence. As far as sheep go you are the one following the flock not me I have broke from an industry that has fed my family for generations. We have to become less dependant on oil. I teach Catalytic reforming. We need new techinology we can convert 90% of the barrel to transportation fuel , thats not the answer. I made my living off the oil industry for thirty years we have to change. Global warming is real burning fossil fuels only contributes to the problem. You solution burns more. [/QUOTE]
