Bingo. Along with every other aspect of our foreign policy that is just an unbelievable destruction of life, property and financial resources, comes this added benefit. Millions and millions of gallons of a non-renewable resource burned and a nice additional tax on every person in the world who consumes anything they did not grow in their yard. But the oil companies are benefiting, so it's not a total loss.
