Imported Oil

[Mr 5 0]

Interesting, but what's the point?

Eventually all the major (and minor) oil companies will import some mid-east oil because that's where the bulk of it is.

The world - and especially the U.S. - needs the crude oil to function and will for as long as we can't - or won't - develop other sources for crude oil, such as drilling in ANWR, which is being debated in the Senate now after being approved by Congress. That'll help but is not a real solution.

As long as oil companies are viewed as an enemy of the people (well, if you're a liberal) and every attempt to drill for oil is seen as an assault on nature then we'll be buying crude oil from mid-east dictators and kings for a long time to come...if the whole region does't self-destruct on it's own from internal conflicts.

So, listing oil companies that buy mid-east crude is - as I said - interesting but ultimately pointless, as I see it.

Thanks for posting it anyway, it may interest some here.
