2. 'Cheap' gas is one of our biggest problems
Creates demand for gas hogs.
Global warming problem.
People think gas is "cheap" without factoring in the huge taxes we pay for military to protect oil sources.
Middle East intrigues.

Europe is well on its way to some semblance of energy independence over the next couple of decades. We have barely started.

It stupid, stort sighted, expensive, environmentally crazy and not good policy to have "cheap gas".

I agree completely.
