The feds continue to keep it tied up. The process for the environmental impact statements were extended and are still in progress.
and then the resulting royalty shows up every year as a check made out to John Q Public - like in Alaska now?
No, the check would be like other federal property, it goes to the federal revenue, not as payment to citizens.
exactly, then you have the control while they scramble...its just a shame that the citizens(us) have to suffer along the way....its not like we can vote ourselves a 3x payraise like the state of louisiana politicians were trying to do...such a shame they are settling to only double it....
I’m with you Bro.
Start with your local Green Peace, Sierra Club and ACLU offices. Those places are high on my list of Places to Go, Things to Do, and People to Meet when Atlas shrugs.
Here you go.
I worked for Shell and ARCO back in the 70’s and 80’s and they told us then that we had many many years of oil shale and to not worry about having jobs. Liberals and RINO’s have been lying to the American people for decades. IMO, it’s all about their power, greed, and egos. The human waste in DC don’t care one shred about the American people. It’s up to the American people to direct their anger at the corrupt, elitist US Congress who have screwed us over for the past 30+ years. A special thank you also goes to Jimmah Carter, the great American traitor!
It takes alot of water to steam the rock to free the oil trapped there.”
NE: No, actually, the rock contains water itself, 2-5% by weight. So when you heat the rock, you release water. The shale is actually a net source of water.
Amen to what you say...and Obama will follow the Carter path....once in the White House!
