ANWR alone won't help enough. We need to be drilling ANWR and the continental shelf as well as open up the off limits oil shale areas. We have enough oil for quite a while, but we need to go after it everywhere. We also need to be building nuke plants and rapidly developing algae to diesel/gas and supercapacitor technologies. Forget about ethanol.
I think the idea is to START DRILLING SOMEWHERE period, then ANWR will follow. Once it gets going, and people see the prices start to drift downward, there will be a veritable SCREAM to drill straight through the caribou and polar bears’ heads to get oil if they’re in the way.
The Komrades in the Dem party know this - they will resist it. Once again, the equation is - Whatever is BAD for America is GOOD for the DemoCom Party; whatever is GOOD for America is BAD for the Dems.
‘Bout sums it up. They are the Treason Party, and have been for the last 60 years (since FDR - and maybe even Wilson).
I’m still waiting for our side to call them by name and take them to task on this point...
