Most of the oil that we import comes from Canada and Mexico. Most of the fossil source fuels that we use for energy could come from our own country if it wasn't for the constant opposition from a small minority of radical environmentalists and our politicians worrying about reelection.
Also, uranium is the cheapest and cleanest energy source on the planet but our politicians are afraid of the power of these small minorities.
I blogged on this subject before but I received it in a different format from an email friend so I am putting it again on my blog site. Comment if you wish or challenge the contents of this blog.
WHERE TO BUY YOUR USA-GAS, THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW. READ ON--
Gas rationing in the 80's worked even though we grumbled about it.
It might even be good for us!
The Saudis are boycotting American goods.
We should return the favor.
An interesting thought is to boycott their GAS.
Every time you fill up the car, you can avoid putting more money into the coffers of Saudi Arabia Just buy from gas companies that don't import their oil from the Saudis.
Nothing is more frustrating than the feeling that every time I fill-up the tank, I am sending my money to people who are trying to kill me, my family, and my friends.
I thought it might be interesting for you to know which oil companies are the best to buy gas from and which major companies import Middle Eastern oil.
These companies import Middle Eastern oil:
Shell........................... 205,742,000 barrels
Chevron/Texaco..........144,332,000 barrels
Exxon /Mobil..............130,082,000 barre! ls
Ma rathon/Speedway...117,740,000 barrels
Amoco...........................62,231,000 barrels
Citgo Gas comes from South America, from a Dictator who hates Americans.
Do the math at $30/barrel, these imports amount to over $18 BILLION! (Oil is now $90-$95 a barrel)
Here are some large companies that
DO NOT import Middle Eastern oil:
Sunoco............... 0 barrels
Conoco................ 0 barrels
Sinclair................ 0 barrels
BP/Phillips........... 0 barrels
Hess.................... 0 barrels
ARC0. ................... 0 barrels
Also: Pilot, Flying J, Love's, RaceTrac, Valero
All of this information is available from the Department of Energy
and each is required to state where they get their oil and how much
they are importing.

All to the point. The problem is, since oil is a world commodity, it matters little who you buy from, as the world oil market will self balance if you buy gas only from the non-opec exporters. If you do that, the people who will suffer are the American businesses selling gas.

This is maybe the fourth or fifth time you've gotten busted trying to pass on fraudulent and hysterical chain letters.
Falsifying this urban legend honestly took about 7 seconds. It this the state of the famed Widmer research skillz? Do you chalk it up to laziness or just incompetence?
