nice try with the disinformation campaign there, kootch. Even if the US oil companies don’t get direct subsidies from US taxpayers, the get indirect subsidies in the form of tax breaks. And the company makes billions. po-TAY-to, po-TAH-to. Or, as Dan Quail would say, po-TAY-toe, po-TAH-toe.

And then there’s the international oil companies and the countries who are sitting on pools of oil. How much have we spent on wars for a few years and then massive amounts of aid in other years, all for the god of oil (and more profits, of course.) What about the tanker spills, the platform disasters, the refinery fires, the groundwater pollution at your local gas station.
Doubt we will ever see a full scale war over wind turbines.
