[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 4011310, member: 42584"] The United States MAY have the means to be 'energy independent', but for me, my belief is that unless and until we actually do meet our energy needs without importing oil/gas from other countries, then we are NOT being energy independent. I've read that the reason we import is: 1) we're saving our own oil for future use when other countries have run out, and 2) it's less expensive for 'Big Oil' to import than produce, yet they still charge the same high prices as the pump - certainly a win-win situation for them regardless of who's in Office. And yes, I am aware that 'Wikipedia' is a melding of opinions from multiple sources condensed into a consensus. Many use 'Wikipedia' in lieu of in-depth research because it's easier and quicker.
