Both are prescription pain pills that allow many to lead lives without agonizing pain, but both are also abused by those who are addicted to them. So usefulness and addiction are not necessarily mutually exclusive. Did somebody put a gun to the heads of those who bought all of those big SUVs and big trucks? When gas was cheaper these people had no trouble with those gas guzzlers or so often driving them alone just as so many chose to live far away from work because they didn't want to live in the city and it was cheap to drive.

No, we both need oil and a very good many in this country are addicted to it. Anybody who is addicted not only wants that to which they are addicted to be readily available, but to be as inexpensive as possible. There are many in this country who desperately want that one thing that will replace oil which will allow them to drive anywhere they like, whenever they like, and usually alone and it doesn't bother them if it impacts food and it price and if it causes some to go hungry.
