Plan
to drive more this summer? Annoyed by the price of gas? Complaining
that oil companies rip you off? I say, shut up. Even if gas costs $4 per
gallon, we should thank Big Oil. Think what they have to do to bring us
gas.
Oil must be sucked out of the ground, sometimes from war zones or deep
beneath oceans. The drills now bend and dig sideways through as much as 7
miles of earth. What they discover must be pumped through
billion-dollar pipelines and often put in monstrously expensive tankers
to ship across the ocean.
