I don't want to pay for my fuel from Cit-go, controlled by a self-aggrandized Communist dictator from Venezuela; nor do I want to pay for my fuel from Iran, whose government advocates physical slaughter of their own people to advance the financial supremacy of the few.
The North Sea, off England, has a tremendous oil reserve. Oil fields off the coast of Alaska are another alternative to Middle-Eastern oil. Is the U.S. government wanting to find alternatives to Middle-Eastern oil, or is the U.S. government deceiving the American public into believing that Middle-Eastern oil is the only way to go?
As a putlic school teacher, I tell all my students who owns Citgo, and ask that they tell their parents who Citgo is, and ask them not to buy gasoline products from Citgo. As soon as I know of other Communist countries who are doing businesss in the U.S., I tell my students, and encourage them not to trade with those companies. This is not an easy task, as many companies are now global. Qualcom is one of the largest companies doing business with Communist countries. My nieice works for Qualcom, making hundred of thousands of dollars a year. I don't want to take her job, but she is working against the U.S.

It doesn't matter. Both sources of fuel are tainted.
Both sources are controlled by dictators (yes, despite their Jimmy Carter-certified elections) who use the oil to fund populist programs designed to keep their impoverished people enslaved to the government. In the name of the benevolent leaders of these nations, people will be given a subsistence, but no more. Any dissent is quashed murderously.
Due to this unequal distribution of Capitalism (aka "Progressivism"), most of the people in these regions will live in poverty while the elites blame the US for their world's plight.
All financed by the world oil markets.

At the moment, the results are the same. They're still lining the pockets of our enemies (Venezuela or the Middle East). I'll take whichever is cheaper, since it's a necessity. But we need to put serious money and effort into alternative and renewable fuel sources, sell the technology to anyone who wants it, and collapse the economy of the middle east. If you cut off their oil train, maybe they will need money badly enough to begin doing something productive, other than listening to bloodthirsty imams.

We don't get oil from Iran. We get a lot of our oil from Canada. Here is a link so you can see where the oil is actually coming from:

Neither. We have plenty of oil to supply ourselves for hundreds of years. If the environmentalists would quit trying to block it, we could get it and set our own price an quit supplying the money to the Arabs to buy weapons to kill our troops.

We have oil in America. The reason we buy so much foreign oil is to help support THEIR economies. They like to say we are greedy for it, but then why do they complain if we don't buy it???
