Billions Flowing Out Of Ohio

trains, goofball

But, but...  118 million barrels of oil flowed INTO Ohio, fueling our economy and making life here possible.  Sounds like a worthy trade to me.   And it was a worthy tradeoff for the rest of Ohioans as well,or else they would not have purchased that fuel.

So, please tell me how bike lanes and transit are going to haul the raw materials used in manufacturing or the finished products that we make?   Why do the greens only think about commuting and personal transportation and never think about the movement of freight, deliveries, service vehicles, construction equipment,etc.?

Investing more in transit, bike lanes
and density. Huh?

Billions flow... out of Ohio - Ohio used almost 118 million barrels of oil in 2009
at a cost of nearly $12 billion, sending $11.5 billion out of Ohio to import it.
That's bad for the economy, the environment and national security!
We could turn this hat trick around by investing more in transit, bike lanes
and density, putting Ohioans to work in the process.
