It’s time to stop burning corn in engines and leave it for food. If I was King, tomorrow our energy policy would be to work towards electric cars fueled by small local Thorium based energy plants. Thousands of these neighborhood power plants would need to be built, cutting Mideast oil out of the loop. Each house would also be supplemented by solar and natural gas. But that’s just me.
If I were king, the rule would be, drill where ever you want to, on land you own or lease.
I keep reading that shale oil will eventually make the U.S. a net exporter of oil. Not to worry, the liberals are working hard on messing it up some way.
