Let's not forget that the USA is by far the biggest oil hog of any country in the world. We must be cold in the summer, and hot in the winter. We must own every energy consuming gadget produced. Look at our gas consumption. We drive gas hogs of the highest order all over the place constantly. (I guess that reflects the low gas prices we've always enjoyed.) How about the jam packed roadways here in Wilmington all afternoon. Those that use the roadways to work, can hardly get around due to all the needless driving. Even when possible, no one will wants stay put for the day, carpool or muti-task their errands. I know persons who will jump in the car and drive anywhere at anytime for very little reason. And, of course, travel is the passion of the times. My trip was the greatest; how was your trip? When you are the biggest energy hogs in the world, maybe personal CONSERVATION is also an option. No one seriously speaks of this. (I've cut way back on energy consumption, especially air conditioning my home and needless one passenger car trips.) Yet, it is let's drill anywhere for more! I guess that's just good hog mentality.
