You may have heard that the House just passed a silly bill taxing American Oil companies for their record profits with the pretense of easing the financial burden on the consumer and researching alternative energy. (never mind that the TAX on a gallon of gas is about 20-30 times the profit margin at any stage in the manufacturing and supply process)
Its funny.
No new drilling allowed in Alaska, no more nuclear power plants built, no hydroelectric plants... all because of the eco-hippies on the left, but now that oil is rising in cost, they are suddenly feeling sorry for the less fortunate Americans.
Then I read This Article on the incredible reserves which are being surveyed in the Dakota / Montana region. Reserves that could potentially drastically reduce, if not end US dependence on foreign oil.
Will the region be slapped with ecological protection laws? or will we be allowed to utilize our national resources?
