I'm no conspiracy theorist, nor do I claim to be 'Will Hunting' but simple math is ....... well......... pretty simple.
If we had our own oil reserves flowing, we could be independent of foriegn oil.
Why have we not been pumping to do this?
Media? No, it goes deeper than media. It sure isn't the conservatives. It seems pretty simple to me.
We have a ton of ready, willing, and able men and women who would love to get on it. There would be NO shortage of companies willing to get on it.
Yet we don't.
There is a ton of money to be made in the private sector with alternative energies, and they will be discovered and refined. In the mean time it would be beneficial to us to get some of this debt down by DRILLING......... Less payouts, more taxes to be collected due to more revunue generated HERE in America. Plus MUCH less cost of goods and easier at the pump.
It's not the conservatives stopping this.
