Not sure what happened to the fidelity of the links, but almost all of them in this article seem to be broken. Would love to see the citations and some of the past posts.
I really enjoy this post! It is troubling to me when the news of BP abuses becomes transposed in the public debate into abuses of my lifestyle (or as it more crudely put by the impartial moderators and talking-heads: our "American" way of life) or on my hyper nationalism against the UK --what a joke!
Let's not forget where we do get our oil: Canada remained the largest exporter of total petroleum in March, exporting 2.517 million barrels per day to the United States, which is an increase from last month (2.490 thousand barrels per day). The second largest exporter of total petroleum was Mexico with 1.265 million barrels per day. Moreover, we import more barrels per day from Canada than from all of the OPEC nations combine http://tonto.eia.doe.gov/dnav/pet/pet_move_impcus_a2_nus_EPP0_im0_mbblpd_a.htm
These three measurements seem to evade public knowledge and enable skewing of reasoning i.e our normative evaluation and decision making for who and why we believe we are allies with particular countries in the Arab world, and give us little pause for why we go into military posturing and even wars.
True, oil is important, but it is not alone important because you and I demanding it to be; rather, its importance is in constant buttress from legislative and industry groups as Juan's post so clearly argues.
Thanks, they are working wonderfully now.
