That's what creates balance.

Whoever controls the energy, controls everything else.

I can't relate to that mindset. Many of us that oppose the constant government attack on liberty really just want to be left alone. For me that extends all over the globe. If some people in a far off place want to have the same liberty as we were/are meant to have they should fight for it, same as we did. We tried nation building and have many examples of the failure that has proven to be. We are missing the opportunity to lead the world by example simply by allowing freedom to the stolen here. You can bet there are some in China that would love to have the heads of all the cruel and selfish "leaders" they are forced to bow to. The ways things are looking someday we may get the chance to have a hand in that.
