What would happen if the oil in the Middle East finishes?
Most Middle Eastern countries do not have taxes because the government is already making money by selling oil. When the US starts using its oil, will it become tax-free? What about terrorism? do you think the rate will go up or down? would the world go into wars with countries like Saudi Arabia? (assuming that they are not at war now because Saudi is the main exporter of oil and without it's oil.. well, no one would be getting around)

What oil wells? we have been using our own oil reserves for years so when the middle east runs out, THE WORLD runs out, to become truly energy independent we need to use all forms of alternative energy

I'm not sure what will happen to places like Saudi Arabia, but I can't wait to find out. The U.S. will become energy independent using alternative sources of power such as our own natural gas, wind, solar, biofuels, etc.
