"I think Energy Independance is going too far." (Shell Oil )
Edited on Tue Jun-20-06 02:50 AM by chill_wind
In our faces. I smell sweat.


Cafferty quoting Shell: "I think Energy Independence is going too Far!"




"JACK CAFFERTY, CNN ANCHOR: Thank you, Wolf.

Listen to this quote: "I think energy independence is going too far." You know who said that? The president of one of the big oil companies, of course. John Hofmeister, who runs Shell, a division of Royal Dutch Shell, said in a TV interview that energy independence is the wrong goal for the U.S.

(snip)


Meanwhile, government stats show 57 percent of the oil used in this country is imported. Last week, the average price of a gallon of gasoline, $2.93, up 40 percent from a year ago. Polls show most Americans blame Shell and the other oil companies for the spike in gas prices. But Hofmeister refuses to apologize for the industry's record profits. "

1. I think nationalizing oil isn't going far enough. Bless Jack Cafferty.
