We Are Unnecessarily Fuel-Inefficient

Patrick Henry:

Wow!

Because of oil's role in the War on Terror, the U.S. stands to benefit enormously from reducing its dependence on petroleum. A coalition ofWashington think tanks has shown that the U.S. can cut oil imports byhalf within two decades by deploying available technologies. This $12billion "Set America Free" proposal enumerates ways to increase fuel efficiency and use domestically produced fuels that are notpetroleum-based.

Doctor Thomas:

It is reasonably common "knowledge" among greenie engineers that improving energy efficiency at zero economic cost can easily be achieved with available technologies of the order of two-to-four times, if not up to ten and more times in some cases.
