    The thing I don’t get is how is reliance on foreign oil not a national security thing. Like surely that angle should tickle someone in the American chain of command.

      The U.S. is now the world’s largest oil producer. On top of that, its government really couldn’t be any more corrupt.

      Of course, the same question arises in other countries, but I think the answer is always the same: corrupt politicians.
