An Energy Reformation

Our current American economy seems to be on the verge of recession or depression due to escalating gas prices.  This in turn affects the prices of food and other essential items for life.  These high prices are the fault of OPEC not releasing enough crude oil for sale and limiting supplies of this vital resource.  China and India are growing exponentially right now and they need oil for their growth.  Oil is the fuel of the machine of progress.

There is one solution to this problem in the USA.  We can drill in ANWR (Arctic National Wildlife Refuge), near our coastlines and within the interior.  Radical environmentalists and groups such as the Sierra Club are crippling these efforts and will not allow drilling.  The construction of new refineries has also been stopped due to radical environmentalists.
 

We can not go after oil in our own nation.  We need to stop this insanity now.  The American people need to call upon the president and all politicians that drilling here and now is the solution to high gas and energy prices.  You can sign a petition on www.americansolutions.com  This site fights for energy independence by ‘drilling here, drilling now and paying less.’
 

The environmentalists are fueled by their belief in global warming or climate change brought about by carbons and green house gases caused by human activity such as burning coal for energy and driving our vehicles.  They hate cars and industry and want alternative fuel forms such as ethanol.  Ethanol production uses immense amounts of gasoline for distillation and transport.  In addition corn is only used for ethanol production in this country.  This robs of an important food source.  The poor and hungry in third world nations will thus suffer due to our arrogance of burning a food product.  Our own people are seeing soaring food prices and having to spend even more at the grocery store.
 

Global warming created by human existence is a hoax and scam.  We have experienced a one degree increase in temperature during the last 100 years.  Any climate change is natural and produced by forces in the earth such as El Nina and El Nino.  We are powerless to stop them.  Anyone can watch ‘The Great Global Warming Swindle’ online to see that this indeed a naturally occurring phenomena on the earth.  Films such as ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ are not accurate and mislead people.  There are nine documented errors in this film.  We have had periods of warming before.  Grapes were even grown in England at one point in time.
 

Because of radical environmental beliefs we are not allowed to use nuclear energy either for our energy needs.  It burns cleaner than coal and is plentiful.  Much of Europe uses nuclear energy to warm their homes and run their industries.  If we could only use this form of energy our energy prices would drop too.
 

If you are tired of high gas, food and electricity prices implore your politicians to stop this insanity and allow drilling for oil in the USA, building of refineries and nuclear power plants and a stop to making ethanol from corn.  The radical environmentalists will stop at nothing and through their actions will hurt our economy and take us into a depression.
