Upsetting The Oligarch

By Kleinheider Posted on June 27, 2008 at 1:54 pm

Nathan Moore is tired of America’s resistance to ramping up its domestic oil production:

America’s greatest asset, which has over two centuries allowed us to do more good than any country ever fathomed, is our historically strong and fast-growing economy and the freedom that comes with it. Our nation’s energy policy and the environmental parishioners who fuel it are putting all that in immediate, and permanent, peril. World demand is increasing, and we are all trying to drink from the same, oligopolic tap.

Sheiks and Marxists are slowly dragging us to our knees, and apparently, some of us seem to really like it.

    Great! So let’s drill the 30 million acres that are already open to drilling and are already under lease, but for some reason are not currently being drilled!

    It’s not the Democrats who are stopping this. It’s the oil companies who have a direct interest in keeping the supply low.

    If we drill domestically, though, we’ll get the tremendous economic boost of a whole 8 cents shaved off our gas purchases.

    But we have to do it for the “psychological” benefit, so says John McCain.

    Oh, so the problem’s really just in our heads? What a relief.
