As big oil companies continue to grow bigger, foreigners are the
ones who get most of the money. If you own a lot of oil stock
you may be happy, but the rest of us can only grumble when we
see prices jump higher at the pump. The gas station is the
easiest way to see how the rising cost of oil affects us, but
there are many hidden costs, too.
Much of the world’s oil now comes from the middle east. We are
able to see on a daily basis the price of being dependent on
another part of the world for the energy we have come to rely
upon. The wars in that region may not be for oil specifically,
but if there was no oil, there would be considerably less money
to make war. Most of the oil money goes to a few people who are
in control. The majority of the people in the oil rich countries
remain poverty-stricken and greatly resent the way the cash flow
does not improve their lives.
For every dollar we spend on gasoline or oil, a significant
portion goes to companies paying taxes in foreign countries. In
much the same way that it hurts our country to lose jobs to
foreign corporations, our economy suffers greatly when we buy
foreign oil.
The U.S. population consumes an incredible amount of energy. For
most of us, mobility is necessary to live our daily lives. We
drive to work each day; chauffer our children from place to
place, and rely heavily upon rental and company cars for
business travel. In a more perfect world, mass transit or
bicycles would be much better, but with frequently changing
jobs, nomadic lifestyles and hectic schedules, these options are
hardly practical.
Many people complain about the price of gas, the war and the
terrorists who are funded by oil money. Instead of enabling the
situation, let's make some changes for the better.
Now is our chance to make a difference for our country and the
future of our economy. How can you help? Exercise your American
buying power!
Boosting the fuel economy of our vehicles can dramatically
reduce foreign oil consumption. We don’t have to be as dependant
on foreign oil as we might think. Just lessening our oil and
fuel usage even a small amount will help. Buying products made
in the USA can reduce our dependence and keep the money and jobs
in our country.
LessForeignOil.com is dedicated to helping reduce the amount of
oil we use through the development of environmentally-friendly
synthetic lubricants. What are some synthetic oil-based products
that will prove economical for your cars, trucks and machinery
parts while being kind to the environment?
- synthetic engine oil - synthetic racing oil - synthetic motor
oil - biodegradable hydraulic oil - transmission fluid -
synthetic polymer food-grade grease - suspension fluid - oil and
air filters - gas stabilizers
As we move into an economy that includes developing countries
with needs that will soon exceed the USA, reducing oil use is
even more important. If you're the kind of person that takes a
great opportunity when it is offered, you can get started now.
For more information on a full line of technologically-advanced,
superior-performance synthetic oil products, visit
