Get ready for the White House to ignore their own science experts again. The Department of Energy commissioned a study by the National Petroleum Council which was meant to help determine our long range energy strategy. Their conclusion? We need to head on up to the Arctic basin and drill baby drill.

Yup. But not to worry. The cost of permitting will bankrupt you and won't be granted anyway. Ref: evil fossil fuels. Say, how'd them dinosaurs get under there anyway?

The only reason now would be nefarious. For example, it would be a way for the feds to help in the effort to drive fracking out of business.
