I have become increasingly concerned - and angry - at this country's continued dependence upon foreign sources for the lifeblood of our nation - energy!
I am appalled at the apparent indifference and lack of intense focused action and programs by our country's political and industrial leadership to greatly reduce or eliminate that dependence, and return the sovereignty and independence this country once possessed.
The wheels of our industries, transportation and agriculture turn on availability of economical energy - and steady deliberate political and corporate reduction of our economical access to reasonably priced energy is as much an act of effective terrorism, and as damaging to our survival as bombs in subways or planes flying into buildings!
I hold the past, and current, administrations responsible and accountable for our current and future survival as a free and independent nation, as well as those in industry more interested in profit than the continued survival of our nation.
I fully expect and demand that our national leaders and various energy heads begin an aggressive and vigorous program to promote increased energy production within our own borders, in the form of oil, natural gas, coal, agricultural based (bio-fuels), solar, and others as yet undeveloped or unexploited.
As a voter, I want it known that the fuel independence and programs proposed by the next candidates for my vote will rate exceptionally high in my decision as to where my vote goes - regardless of party affiliation.
Along with those issues, is my expectation of prioritized governmental application of Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and Sierra Club influence in deciding far-reaching issues affecting broad areas of the well being of our society. Trading the tranquility of Spotted Owls and obscure tree frogs for the health and existence of humans must end, or be decided by priorities rather than unfounded emotion.
We must return this country's self-sufficiency, and our political/corporate agenda of blood and lives for fuel, and profit, MUST come to an end!

- In this depressed economy the steady rise of fuel prices are putting a serious strain on any buisness that is trying to make it. Soon these fuel prices will make it even harder to stat afloat. Instead of subsidizing other countries economies how about provide funding for the biofuel industry and remove our dependance on other countries. If we as a nation can provide the means and the raw materials to produce the biofuels doesn't it make more sense to keep the money in the US than paying some third world country for oil? It would boost the economy and support the farmers and keep our hard earned money here where it is needed most. With the help from the Government Biofuel would not only be competitive with fossil fuel it would beat it by quite a good margin. Also it would be a completly renewable resource!

- Something needs to be done. None of the current Presidential candidates are even talking about fuel prices. Congress wastes time grilling Roger Clemens on steroids instead of hauling these oil company CEO's before Congress for a full public audit to explain why they continually are posting record profits year after year.
