You want to trade blood for oil Crockett?
We could have replaced oil a long time ago. We didn't to support the oil economy.
The USA is heading the right way from oil dependence -- away.
Europe and Asia are fucked -- but Russia could help out and benefit economically. There are always alternatives if you want them bad enough.
I have no illusions of the "beating of swords into plowshares." Did you notice how Putin got the fuck out of Syria as soon as that baby was decapitated in Russia? Maybe, he saw the futility of getting too involved in the local disputes. We are not capitalizing on this to promote our own well being.
I guess we (government policy) want to continue trading blood for oil ...
