I strongly agree. For both political and economic reasons, the West needs independence from the turbulent forces that lead to economic recession, terrorism, and war. OPEC is a leading cause of political strife, and independence from their resources would do us all good. Maybe they'll straighten up when their supply isn't in so much demand. Until then, we need to seek other means of power in conjunction with making the ones we already have more efficient. Efficiency is always good.
