I disagree with the alternative energy argument here, as oil wells have been proven to be replenishing themselves naturally.
Gas prices are held up by the oil companies that will charge whatever they feel like charging, regardless of the price of a barrel of oil.
When was the last time you saw a lobbyist for alternative energy running around congress?
There's no money or sustainability for alternatives as of yet.

the fact that you are ready to (1) reduce health care and care giving to a commodity right out of the gate, and (2) equate that commodity with oil -- especially foreign oil -- is just too over-the-top laughable.
You aren't asking a sensible question. Your logic mirrors the following question: 'do you prefer the color orange or toilet? answer teh ****ing question!!!1!1!!!'
