Newsflash:

With all the bullshit surrounding it (pollution, Middle East politics, whatever) OIL IS JUST CHEAPER...it is that simple. When something else is cheaper...we will use that.

Ya, it's like meth, it's way worse for you, but way cheaper then crack.

Mountains of history and evidence show it, I don't need to prove a reality so obvious. Even your oil lobbyist pres said so, thats like the devil saying listen to Jesus.
