Simple fact of the matter is, you don't have to give up anything. Get the EPA and the enviro-loons out of the oil industry. Open up the coast of California and Florida to drilling. Open up ANWAR to drilling.

Then watch the oil company make a profit off of $20 barrel oil and smile. Because they sure as hell can't make a profit off of $20 barrel of oil now.

Sounds so simple. I wonder why it isn't being done now. If it were as profitable as it appears so simple, I think it would have already been done. SOMEone is holding SOMEthing back.
