Nope. More self-sufficiency on a state basis...if a state becomes
economically responsible for itself, then the burden is taken off
the Federal gommit.

Hey, sounds good to me. You folks out in the Midwest subsidize your farmers
to produce ethanol and run your cars on the stuff 100%. Meanwhile take off
that silly mandate that the rest of us burn 10% ethanol in our gasoline. New
York and NJ get first dibs on the foreign crude as it comes into the port,
refine it into gasoline and run our vehicles on that, and, if there's any
left over might send some out your way.

Nope...the other part of the equation is that no more foreign oil
comes into the country.
