Democrats will put a stop to this ASAP.
Their Saudi and Venezuelan puppet masters told them to.
I thought all the gas in western PA was emitted by John Murtha, but it seems that there is plenty more!
Isn’t it a fact that the first oil wells in PA are still pumping oil?
With the Bakken report due out Thursday, this could be a “perfect storm” in the energy markets.
Awww...who's thinking about all the widdle bunny wabbits, cute little Bambi deer and adorable raccoons being discomfited by all this nasty, smelly machinery and noise? This must stop immediately!
Anyone ever been to these areas? Potter County in NW PA or Allegheny County in Western NY? We are talking real Appalachia-style rural poverty. Am sure the NY legislature in Albany will think of ways to take all their new-found wealth to leave them as poor as before.
Yeah a perfect storm if production were ever allowed to take place, until then enjoy $4 a gallon gasoline.
Prior to the invention of the automobile, most oil was burned in kerosene lamps. For the first 25 years of the Oil Age era, Pennsylvania was the worlds leading producer. (John D. Rockefeller coined Americas largest fortune by cornering the Pennsylvania market.) In 1891 the Quaker State produced enough oil to light the U.S. for 7 months. In 1937, when its production reached a second lower peak, Pennsylvania supplied enough to run the now motorized country for 7 days. Today the states oil could power the U.S. for only 3 hours. Although there are still 19,000 wells in Pennsylvania, collectively they produce a puny 6,900 barrels each day. In contrast, Saudi Arabia produces 8 million barrels1,100 times as muchfrom just 1,400 wells.
Change your name to Eyore. Jeeze.
One thing for certain - the liberal wackos will find some reason to oppose it.
Eeyore? Hardly. What do you see in Americas energy policy that will allow domestic production to take place in such a way that oil and gas prices decrease? Sorry, I work in the field and i consistently see that government regulations are set up in a way that do not allow the markets to work. Most in this country believe that oil and gas companies have enough pull to get their way and produce oil and gas wherever they see fit. In REALITY the few environmental whackos in this country have far more influence on regulations than oil companies will ever dream of having. if you have ever wondered why gasoline prices are so high there is a reason, and it isn’t the lack of oil in the ground.
