Imagine the savings of not having to send troops all over the world if a pipe line might be threatened or if so and so might threaten ships passing through the suez canal etc etc. Imagine what being able to grow your own fuel will do for your world position when other oil supplies dwindle. Short sighted would say biodiesel is not an improvement, long term it is gonna get better. Has to.
