Food for thought

Without further ado, I give you the current official stats on U.S. oil consumption. You'll notice that BP is a big player domestically, nothing really strange there. They are a multi-national corporation like the other oil giants, legally allowed to operate in the US, and they had the resources to invest in drilling and production. The majority of Americans give little thought about oil until something like a spill or price crunch happens. Then they blame the politicians, who the people elected because they told them what they want to hear.
