See the graph folks. Drilling in the Gulf is SHUT DOWN. Thousands of people are out of work, property is effectively being confiscated by obastard without any process. The useful idiots in BOEMRE are not about to issue any permits because the NTL with the new regulations is written in such a way that the bureaucrats issue the permits "at their own discretion". Meaning that if something goes wrong they go to jail. Hmmm, permit or I go to jail if some thing, anything goes wrong... Let me see... NO PERMIT. obastard has these people so scared for their phony baloney jobs they aren't going to do a thing. The government goes on because they just raise taxes, matters not that there is no industry to regulate to them.
obastard is not just destroying the country one brick at a time. He is taking down whole walls. Time for him to go people.
