True . . . but not life as we knew it. A guy in Europe on my rung of the social ladder lives in an apartment and may not even own a car. I (for now) own all kinds of cool stuff. I like owning a sailboat. We have the oil. Our leaders won't let us drill for it. If the Clintons hadn’t cut off Alaska 10 years ago things might be different. If our leaders hadn’t sold us out years ago (to China) things would be different.
