An old editorial I read that seems to be a plausible solution to our energy dependence.

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

As the drive of a diesel truck I heartily second this.  It's amazing how many people get in my truck (which is admittedly, bigger than all outdoors, F250 Crew Cab) and ask what my mpg is.  When I tell them around 15 in town and 18-20 on the highway they all give me an incredulous look followed quickly by a "That's what I get in my Ranger/S-10/Tahoe/Explorer/Mini-Van"

You meet a man on the Oregon Trail. He tells you his name is Terry. You laugh and tell him: "That's a girl's name!" Terry shoots you. You have died of dissin' Terry.
