Many people have pointed out Iran's support for Hezbollah - not only in supplying weapons, but money as well. However, Iran obviously gets its money from oil; the biggest consumer of oil in the world is the U.S.; and the reason the U.S. consumes so much oil is because of our driving habits and choices of low-mileage vehicles.
In fact, if the average mileage of American automobiles went up by just 5 mpg, we could end all oil imports from the Middle East.
So is it possible to be patriotic, condemn terrorism, and still drive a car that gets bad mileage?
