What Iam saying is why do my tax dollars have to help the most proffitable companies in history take MY oil and then pay them what they decide to get it back.  And yes,we should have total control over the one resource other than water that WILL be the the source of a world war.  When the world runs out, you want Exxon to be in control of what is left here?  I at least would like us to quit selling our oil, Timber, coal and other resources to other countries.

When you tell me that we have to drill in ANWR or log in the National Forrest, or remove a mountain to get coal so that this country can continue to function, I will at least listen.  When you try and tell me we must do those same things so we can sell our resources to other countries so people like the CEO of Exxon can receive a 400 million dollar retirement package, I say go screw yourself.

Don't tell me oil is a "National Security Issue" and then tell me that we should leave our national security in the hands of international corporations.
