Alaska Darin Posted December 18, 2005 Posted December 18, 2005 Don't worry, these companies hold the nation's best interests paramount, even above their own. All is well. 535037[/snapback] Just like the big government that your side is so beholden to. They've been shaking hands and winking at each other for years while you and the rest of the lemmings shake your fists violently and pretend the other guy is the problem.
Catholic Guilt Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 Really? God forbid a caribou can't screw in Myrtle Beach when it can go to Charleston. 534444[/snapback] Or Fort Mill!
X. Benedict Posted December 20, 2005 Posted December 20, 2005 Or Fort Mill! 537531[/snapback] That's a family town. Caribou like Myrtle Beach for Golf and Spring Break.
UConn James Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 Looks like Ted "The Hulk" Stevens' brute strength wasn't enough. On one hand, there won't be oil drilling in the short term, and we're going to continue to be beholden to OPEC (tho, we still would be; most of the oil drilled here isn't used here). On the other hand, necessity is the mother of all invention and it will put a fire under our butts for bringing alternative, renewable energy to market.

So long as there's oil and coal to be found, that will be used.
colin Posted December 22, 2005 Posted December 22, 2005 even tho it is physically delivered and consumed (and there are specific costs to that) gas, oil, and any meaningful resource trades on a world market. any increase in supply will tend to put downard pressure on the price. the US could produce 10 times what it uses, producing (enough) more will still put downard pressure on prices.
