The Great Oil War Strategy

If the US had purchased Oil with the 480 billion we have squandered on the Iraq war we could have purchased 13 billion barrels in 2003 and our entire consumption of oil would have been free for two years. Talk about a great government giveaway program. Instead, we have squandered the money, spent over twice that much for two years worth of oil and our country is less secure. If we begin to extract our troops today, the final bill will still be over 1 trillion by the time we rebuild our military.
The cost of the Iraq war is $231,000 per minute and our consumption of foreign oil is $197,000 per minute.
For an oil war this really isn't going very well unless you are in the oil binness like a Bush or work for Halliburton like Big Dick.

It is clear our nation is reliant upon big foreign oil. More and more of our imports come from overseas.
