I am surprised and not surprised by your answer. 1st, I am not sure you know what a conglomerate is ... just so you know it is a combination of two or more corporations engaged in entirely different businesses together into one corporate structure.

2nd, just because a corporation has multinational interests does not make them not a US company. Almost every major corporation has multinational interests.

3rd, we all love the environment ... but whether the oil comes from the US or elsewhere, it is still oil. I do not agree with the environmentalist views when before cars existed there was hype about global warming ... and a new ice age. This was discussed in a previous post not long ago.

Lastly, are you one of the 262 people that bought the Chevy Volt? There is obviously not the interest or the worry about getting off oil ... even from the tree huggers. And Obama is even paying people to buy the car ... and still it is not selling. People do not want all electric vehicles ... hybrids yes ... but not completely electric.

It is sad you would rather see people stay unemployed and the economy struggle and poor people not being able to afford gas, and more dollars being exported that may throw the economy back in recession ... and that is all ok with you. That is harsh and you should be ashamed of yourself to be so selfish and say you don't have to worry about it since you are financially secure, while others have to make decisions to buy gas to get to their job or buy food.

What kind of liberal are you. WOW !!!
