All we need to do is
A) Build more refinerys
B) Drill in Alaska...
C) Help the russians pump their oil (they have gobs of oil and little technology to pump/refine it)
D) Stop buying all mid-east oil.
That will hold us for 200 years easy..
Then we could "offer" to buy gas from the middle east for 10 bucks a barrel (or whatever we want to pay. Think about it, oil is ALL they have and WE are the largest consumer. If we stop buying they will starve. We could re-nego. all the leases the way WE want.
Also, I think it would be good for the world for us to pull out of buying oil for a few years, after all all this oil money is funding terror anyway.
