It is absolutely unacceptable that the United States is dependent upon foreign countries to meet our energy needs. We have the natural resources, the technical expertise, the market demand and a motivated energy industry. All we lack is the political leadership in Washington, DC.

Political action committees (PACs) representing the financial sector contribute heavily to campaigns and lobby strongly against regulation. Unfortunately, there is no comparable force lobbying on behalf of the people for transparency, fair lending, and responsible asset management. The members of the House that voted for the bailout on Monday received an average of 51% more campaign contributions from the finance, insurance and real estate sector than those that voted against it. That’s no coincidence.
