Oiloholics

Craig at Donkey Path points us to Cynthia Tucker's column on our oil addiction.


Cynthia says:

"...we are still swilling straight from the bottle -- while lecturing others on the merits on temperance."

Craig says:

"The history of America is not perfect but it's essential to understand that the history of most nations on this Earth has not been perfect. If Americans have an advantage, it's that we have reinvented ourselves several times after making mistakes and then we have moved on. I don't believe we're out of ideas and I don't believe we're out of courage. I have no doubt that we're in for more difficult times but we, the people, are not powerless."

Craig adds insight to Tucker's. Both are worth reading.
