I don’t doubt you. The problem is, NONE of these jerks should be setting energy “policy.” We don’t need more “policy” as we already have more than enough. What we need is for government to get the (#$^& out of the way and let the so-called greedy capitalists solve this problem! It really can be solved, just not by reams of government proclamations from on high.
The problem is that so much real estate is owned/controlled directly by the FEDS. The rest is regulated by the enviro true believers in Fish & Wildlife, EPA, and various state agencies.
Bill O'Reilly does not believe in private enterprise. He wants to tax "big eeevil oil." And that jerk is supposed to be a conservative?
