Could you please give me some good new article links for my agumentive essay on oil dependency. Thanks!

My prompt:

Does the US need to reduce its dependence on Middle Eastern oil?

If you argue that it does, then provide a way for this to be accomplished and a timeline for it.

If you argue that it does not, provide sound reasoning for that route, and disprove the opposing viewpoint's ideas to prove your own. (This is one that I am writing about)

Here are umpteen articles on the topic. I went to www.google.com and entered us dependency middle east oil. Look especially for articles with .gov in the URL for official US government positions; look for .org in the URLs for positions of other groups; look for URLs with latimes.com or nytimes.com or time.com or newsweek.com or any other newspaper or newsmagazine for those points of view.
