James Woolsey on ending the oil era

Interview with former CIA director James Woolsey. “The war on terror is the only war the United States has fought, with the obvious exception of the civil war, in which we pay for both sides. This is not a good plan. This current year we will borrow something on the order of $320 billion dollars, nearly a billion dollars a day, to import oil.”
