In today's Washington Post we are informed the Energy Bill we are hoping will decrease the dependence on foreign oil will not accomplish much. According to the report: Federal officials project that by 2025, the country will have to import 68 percent of its oil to meet demand.
Currently we import 58 percent of the oil we consume. The report did have some good ideas: The bill also would require the use of billions of gallons of ethanol and other fuels derived from agricultural products.
We just might be making some progress here.
