We don't subsidize coal coming from Indonesia's Riady Boys. Thanks to Billy-Goat's seizure of Utah land, under which exist large deposits of low-sulphur content coal, much coal comes in from his old Indonesia-Arkancide friends.

As far as drilling in the pristine wilderness areas is concerned, the animals might get contaminated. Meanwhile, since the late 50's the Alaskan Pipeline continues to transmit oil to Kalifornica where it is loaded onto ships bound for Asia. Not a barrel of that is refined and used in America.

Oil is fungible.

It is cheaper to sell Alaskan oil to Asia to buy oil from sources that can ship easier to East coast and Gulf of Mexico refineries, basically a swap.

Which is why Billyboy and Hilly spent Spring Break with their Indy friend and Chretian.

They have something up their sleeves every time a terrorism success hits the new cycle.

Coincidence? Whatever.
