Alternative Energy Strategy
It was with great apprehension that Winston Churchill converted his military from coal to oil. He understood that being reliant on your enemy for the primary resource that runs both your military might and your economy (which also pays for your military), is a fools strategy. Left with no other viable alternative energy option, he converted the military to oil to make gains in the speed and efficiency of his fleets. Churchill would be rolling in his grave if he could see the magnitude of the mess we are in today.
The good news is, we now have efficient alternative energy sources that are also economically viable. FFV vehicles that use E85 and hybrid cars are already available to supplement our energy needs, heck forty percent of Brazilian cars today are already fueled by ethanol. Converting to these alternatives would reduce our national security/economic/environmental concerns and increase demand for some of our wilting farming sectors.
