How long untill America wakes up?

Brazil will announce sometime this year that they will no longer need to import oil. They have replaced the imported oil with fuel made from sugar cane. How long before America wakes up and starts replaceing oil imports with home made ethenol? How long before congress and the senate stop letting big oil influence their decisions?

    We need an alternative government to go with our alternative fuels. It won't happen until we get someone in the white hose with out any ties to BIG OIL. This goes for the Dems too.

    Congress is filled with Lawyers and has been sold to the highest bidder long ago. I have faith in our young people, they will wake up when they see clearly that organized crime is alive and well in America and some call it Congress.

    They will also wake up when they see evil for what it is.

    We now live in a dictatorship and our young people are not as stupid as some Adults.

    BTW, GM has said they will have a Hydrogen auto to market by 2020. That is fact. If we had spent $2 trillion on Alternative fuel or mass transit over the past 10 years not in Iraq, we would already have the hydrogen Auto.

    Its estimated we only have enough gasoline to last us another 30 years... so then.. probably in 30 years everyone will wake up. I think its exciting all of these different ideas that are cleaner for the environment and what not. Corn has been put in gas in Illinois and Wisconsin for a long time-- and really ... if its just corn in gas.. its a little different but not a lot. I heard that some guy made a car that used old grease... from like McDonalds and whatnot... that worked-- but thats not a viable option really. I don't think that the congress wants to- who makes a lot of money every year? the gas companies... they have a lot of influence and I don't see it ending anytime soon.

    well, the answer to the question itself is, about an hour ago east coast, and a couple hours from now pst...

    as far as fuel goes, there are commercials that suggest that gm is using a new fuel based on corn, caled ethenol 88 or some junk like that... im pretty excited about it...

    although the true time when americans wake up and realize how much propaganda we are fed? priceless....

    there are some things money cant buy... for everything else... there is bootycard...

    We will wake up when things get really bad and we can't hit the snooze button any longer. It takes a movement to change things. Blaming the president or anyone else for that matter is foolish. We are the masters of our own destiny and as such we each have the ability to change things in our little part of the universe. If we are all doing this then change will happen. It's not good enough to wait till your neighbor does it. Be a trailblazer...

    I know a guy with autism. He has a patent on this machine he made that will recycle fuel and engines. He came up with the invention in 82. He got his patent and trademark in 93. He's was patent pending all that time. So he tried to present his invention to the government. What do you think happened? They turned him down. They said, "This technology is too complex for us to understand, and it would ruining the economy. Try the trucking industry." So, it's been around for awhile. Money is the root of all evil.

    America wakes up at around 6:13 every morning. But she doesn't get to work until 7:30.

    You declare all of Iraq's WMDs have been destroyed. So why did Saddam evict the UN inspectors whose activity it became to be advantageous that? That became in no way shown, and there became good reason to suspect in any different case. as far by way of fact the U. S. and the united kingdom purely "blazing in", that became entirely justified for my area. it might have been silly to assume the UN, which technically in no way had any actual skill, to do something approximately Iraq on that is very own. there became no incentive for Saddam to comply with the UN's words, by way of fact the UN is barely as solid as that is weakest link, and there are some enormously susceptible hyperlinks preserving some needed positions. the U. S. additionally facilitates worldwide places to oppose the UN. Hell, Iraq did it for 12 years. a lot of world places combat wars with out UN approval. you could desire to look at situations like Rwanda from Clinton's attitude. only months earlier, US forces have been in touch in an extremely comparable subject in Somalia, which did not end nicely. It did not would desire to end that way, yet it is yet another count. Clinton became in no rush to repeat THAT fiasco. Why would you have us withdraw now that we are creating countless advantageous progression? we would desire to continually stay and finished the activity.

    America and its people reminds me of the old guy who went "coon" (that's an animal in North America) hunting one moon-light night and he fell into an open well. Affraid he would plunge to his death he resorted to throwing out his legs and arms againest the sides of the well to stop his fall. Finally, he came to a halt and hung there for hour after hour. Finally it came the light of a new day and cast a little beam of sunlight into the well. He looked down and BEHOLD...he was only inches from the bottom !!! The people of America are for the most part, a bunch of in-debt, greedy fools that cannot stop until they reach the bottom of "their" well !!! They remind me of a bunch of "hogs" eating "slop" !!!!

    Too many people in the U.S., including people in positions of political power, are making too much money on oil to let that happen. On top of this, here aren't enough rich people not in the oil business who are concerned about it enough to make any difference.
