Why can't we find other sources of fuel? Whatever happened to the car that ran completely off of water? Well, I'll tell you. Bet you a barrel of oil that the oil companies have bought out the patents not to mention the auto manufacturers. What do ya'll think they do with the billions of dollars that they're making off of us? On another note: I am all for reducing our dependance on foreign oil. Yes, America desperately needs more and up-to-date refineries. Anyone read today that oil prices went down 6$ a barrel? Hmm....every election they seem to bring the price of gas down. Guaranteed if we had reduced our dependance greatly on foreign oil, we'd be shipping what oil we have to China. Gas prices would be exactly the same. Just look at Canada. They don't rely on foreign oil as much as we do, and the gas prices there are higher than ours. What gives? Give me an engine that will run on something other than oil and then you'll have my interest. Why isn't the oil companies spending the billions of dollars that they make off of us on alternative oil? If I was an oil company ceo...I would definitely be looking into this area....more ways to make money.
