Fracturing , AKA “fracking” a well, has been going on for over twenty years to my personal knowledge. Perhaps longer than that, as I do not speak for something I do not know.
Why is this fracking all of the sudden in the news? Does it sound scary or environmentally unfriendly, or is it a cover for, “ gee, we can’t imagine why these states are doing so well”.?
Last time I looked (quite a few months back), our country was down to using about 19 million barrels per day. A few years before that, we were using about 20 million.
The Red states have both food and energy.
They should pull out of the NYC Nation.
They would be the wealthiest nations overnight.
An article worth repeating. See comments from first posting:
