I guess I figure it can't hurt to fill out one.
Pretty much everyone I know has signed this. I dont run along any party lines but I dont think oil companies are worried much while the current president is in office.
Something has to be done though, maybe this will get a ball rolling.
Anything is worth a try. However, I refuse to be held hostage by these bums. At WOT I figure I burn a gallon in just minutes, perhaps a little less WOT will help some.
Everybody thought Kennedy was nuts when he wanted to put a man on the moon in a decade. We spent zillions. Got R Done. And your bass boat is full of stuff that came from that.
An all out effort like that is what it will take to remove our dependence on oil, foreign or domestic. We're going to spend the zillions anyway, let's spend it to free ourselves from this mess.
