Here is an additional story put on the internet when this was all starting and I guess everyone in this country must feel it ok for other countries to steal our resources. Although, US law will not allow American companies from drilling for oil off our own coast of Florida, the US laws will not stop the Chinese from setting up 36 new oil wells there for Cuba.

"No Zone" laws pushed by the current minority party and passed by the US government, will not stop China with its abyssmal environmental record from drilling WITHIN 50 MILES from the Florida Keys: The Cuban government is to allow China to station 12 oil rigs in its waters in the Gulf of Mexico.

Fidel Castro's government has stepped up work on 36 new oil wells in partnership with Chinese and Canadian companies, officials said on Thursday.

The Cuban government is generally silent about oil matters, but this week Communist Party newspaper Granma also reported that Cuba had drilled its deepest oil well yet near Varadero, east of Havana.

Diplomatic sources said Indian, Norwegian and Spanish companies would begin searching for crude oil in the gulf.

"China, as our National Security Strategy points out, is trying to lock up resources around the world, and they are locking up resources in our own back yard where we can't even compete," Senator Craig (R-ID) said in his own speech to the Senate on Thursday.

The joke is on you people, because you will be paying high import fees for your own oil. But who cares that we are all slaves. Why don’t we drill off their coasts and see how they like us stealing their oil. I would be willing to bet that they would cut off all exports to the US until we stopped.

Another way we can save fuel as a country Is stop shipping all our coal overseas. In Williamsburg there is a train that comes through the town once every hour and it has 100 large cars on it that are filled with coal, being taken to the shipping yards. People do not realize how much coal that really is. One hundred cars an hour times 24 hours, is 2400 cars of coal every single day, seven days a week. One days supply would heat an entire city for a month or more. Not only would that be a fuel saver but also reduce the amount of fuel oil we use. If we stopped selling our coal overseas it would reduce the cost of a ton of coal and make us less dependent of foreign fuel oil. There also would be an abundance of coal and it would bring back the price where most people could afford it again. You can see a few pictures of what I am talking about on my website; a picture is worth a thousand words.

The bottom line is that the truth is out there but no one in this country wants to know it.
