I've always thought that we should be 1)pressuring Saudi Arabia more, and 2)pressuring the living daylights out of Mexico. It's embarrassing that we have to import so much oil from the middle east, when we have so much available in our own hemisphere, from countries that aren't run by militant psychos. But everybody gets so wrapped up w/ concern of OPEC, they don't realize how much is actually available right in our own backyard.
It's a classic magician's trick... Get the crowd looking one way, so they don't pay attention to what's really going on.[/QB]
I work for a gas LDC and have other interests in oil and gas so I do understand what you are talking about. Again to apply pressure to other countries we are messing in someone else's business. As we have seen they do not take kindly to our presence. Iraq was an opportunity.
