Why was the U.S. Department of Energy (DoE) formed during the Carter administration more than 20 years ago? The answer is really very simple, but I bet only a few [if any] remember the reason why the DoE was formed.
THE ANSWER:
The reason the Department of Energy was formed was to lessen U.S.A.'s dependence on foreign oil.
PLEASE NOTE:
Now, we are in 2008, more than 20 years later . . . The annual budget for the U.S. Department of Energy is $24.2 billion a year; it has 16,000 federal employees, and approximately 100,000 "contract" workers. The cost of gasoline per gallon is $____ [whatever the cost is in your city/town]. And the U.S.A. is still dependent on foreign oil.
HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED WHY?
