5. Don't agree - all we've done is outsource pollution
Higher prices represent China and India's demand for oil.

Just in case you haven't seen the latest from Beijing, they have the worst air pollution on the planet. Thinking pollution is down because oil consumption in the US is down is very short sighted and uninformed oppinion. Closer to the truth, because these countries have "Next to None or NO Environmental Air Quality standards" associated to vehicle emissions the net result is INCREASED pollution.

Outsourcing INCREASES POLLUTION plain and simple
