Deepak, US has survived despite India and outsourcing for the longest time. In many ways, US is unlike India. In US, ideas thrive to become realities. People blame US for anything and everything that happens in the world. Its fashion now a days. Drilling in gulf shores is not an answer to the oil problem because drilling will take at least 10 years to produce results and the amount of oil coming out is not enough to even support US for 10 more years. McSame is the real sham and he is the one who support Dubya to get in Iraq and stay in there. So take a hike.
