Oil, including Federal taxes on oil, is a big influence on world affairs. A true world wide, progressive agenda is to address and promote the issues of alternative fuel. The proliferation of alternative fuel sources will lead to:
· Greater democracy now in Arab countries
· Women right in Arab countries, Oil economy allows Saudis to keep their woman as second-class citizens.
· Reduction or elimination of oil money support for world terrorism
· Prevention of Global warming
· Reduction in Weather related catastrophes like we see now in Europe and Asia
· Increase in agriculture food production now reduced by air pollution (The pollution cloud over much of South East Asia)
· Stop drilling in ecology sensitive areas, like Arctic Wild Life
· Prevent the marketing and use of Pesticides which are Oil-derivatives
· Reduce US need to intervene in many areas in the globe, e.g. Burma, Middle East, Mid Asia
· Reduce environmental destruction like the one threatening the Indigenous people in South America, Burma, Afghanistan etc…
· Prevent many health problems caused by Oil based air pollution which also increase health costs and Insurance rates
