At FOIL, we earn money to continue to create, develop, produce and publish hard information through the sale of posters and political deeds©. It's the American way! No handouts. No grants. No fund raisers, just good old fashioned capitalism without being stuffy about it.
So far, everything you see and hear about us has been done with our own money.

Ignoring terrorism won't make it go away.
The price of ignorance is too darn high.
Ignore an illness and it could kill you.
Ignore your mortgage payment and someone's going to take your house away.
Ignore a strange noise from your car and you could get stranded in the middle of nowhere.
But America has ignoring terrorism by continuing to purchase foreign oil in record numbers — millions of barrels a day. Too many of those dollars are going into the pockets of USA-hating desert rats bent on taking America down. FOIL — the Foreign Oil Independence League — has been pushing hard to educate the public about the need to cut the conduit to foreign oil and encourage the development of alternative fuel sources right here in the United States. But the clarion call is too often ignored - or lost in a sea of lip service.
Most all your elected politicians are bought and paid for by Big Oil, Big Automobiles or Big Corporations. They talk a slick talk, but when the rubber meets the road, they're more interested in greasing their palms than turning off the oil spigot.
Lobbyists, too, owe their daily bread to big business and foreign interests. They run around Washington, D.C., with unlimited expense accounts and bags of campaign funds and perks, buttonholing Congresspersons. It's a darn shame. Oil embargoes of the 1970s and 1980s warned us that oil was an unstable commodity. But nothing changed.
The 9-11 attacks were a wake-up call - for a while, anyway. We hung flags on our cars and stuck them in our windows. But in time, they faded or fell off, and Americans went back to their old, complacent ways Terrorism is still part of our lives. And will continue to be -- as long as we keep sending them blood money for their oil.
Let's stop this insanity and bankrupt terrorists by developing and using alternative energy sources such as solar, wind and biomass. They're on the market and available right now. Yes, this means that patriotic citizens have a major task on their hands. But it's high time we all get into the game.
