California produces more oil than Alaska. We are the third state for oil production. This will effect our economy also.

I was down in the San Ardo Valley last year and all those stripper wells that have been idle for years were all pumping. If we had a sane government ( in our case both State and Federal) we would be number 2.
All that said, it’s sure nice to fill up and not have to liberate a $100 bill.
California has the resources to be an even bigger player in oil production. There is oil naturally seeping into the coastal waters, just waiting to be tapped.
But, the environmentalists would rather it all dribble away, rather than run the risk that a drilling rig will leak.
