Aiming for energy indepenence will only make us isolationist and protectionist which is not good.

About a week of THEIR oil filling up THIER storehouses will entice them to sell it to us for 10$.<br /><br />Anyway, the USA purchased Alaska for oil drilling...but their not really using it for that. I think they should be drilling on their own land.Jordan Pirchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06420294008139194224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070993115952724491.post-91787469266922993492009-09-30T10:47:55.025-05:002009-09-30T10:47:55.025-05:00I haven't done any research this year (cause I...I haven't done any research this year (cause I'm not debating..) so from a completely naive point a view :P.... <br /><br />I think the U.S. needs to keep filling up its reserves (which is currently stored in salt domes) and it also needs to continue/start (idk the current status of how it is going) but start or continue drilling in Alaska. <br /><br />I think that it needs to substantially reduce the amount of foreign oil it buys, but just enough so that it is not dependent on other countries.. But definitely build up our own reserves as well as trying to produce as much domestically as we can :) <br /><br />Just my thoughts..Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09149601801089928142noreply@blogger.com
