OIL SHORTAGES

There are a lot of people who can't understand how we came to have an oil shortages here in the 
USA. 
  
Well, there's a very simple answer: nobody bothered to check the oil.
  
We just didn't know we were getting low.  The reason for that is purely geographical.  All the 
oil is in Texas, Oklahoma, Alaska, etc. 
  
All the dipsticks are in Washington, D.C.
