More Lay-offs

I think there is some east coast oil as well and some off the CA coast to drill. Why go all the way to alaska ? It is darned cold up there.

I'm all for it. Get your fellow Democrats to agree and hopefully drillers will be out there tomorrow.
 
"IMO, most of our needs "

Oh, IN YOUR OPINION. Well, that certainly settles the matter.

Why don't you check out what some in the industry estimate before you go making an idiot out of yourself again?

You don't need to cherry pick lines out of context to think your gaining ground in this little exchange....it just shows you're a asshole .....

What don't you understand about 40+ years...and you don't have a clue what is in the ground under our land and off our coasts....China WILL help Mexico start drilling in Carab. and someone will give the Cubans a helping hand drilling between Fla. and Cuba....and sooner rather than later.....
and WE will foolishly follow the idiots and start building windmills .....

yeah you think those people with multi million dollar beach houses will want to look at a drilling rig and get oil on their feet on the beach ?

I think some of them are Republicans too. Remember Jeb fought offshore drilling in FL ?

You don't know anything on this topic; that much is clear. There is no one in the industry, or who knows anything about the industry, who thinks domestic drilling could fulfill most of our energy needs.

No one.

shit, come to California homeboy. You didn't say Florida. Switching your tune pretty quickly when you got called out.

Cali environmental groups killed it.

Go to Massachutes (sp) where Kennedy and Cronkite and others don't want windmills (or whatever they are called, Chap can explain). More hypocritical rich elites.
 
yeah and the rich people on the beach were glad for the environuts. Real handy to have them around and take the blame....

There is an estimated 2 trillion barrels of oil buried beneath parts of Colorado, Utah and Wyoming. Geologists, petroleum companies and the federal government have known about these massive deposits for nearly a century. The trouble has always been: how do you get at it?

It is believed that the shale deposits in the Green River region of Colorado, Utah and Wyoming are holding the equivalent of approximately 1.5 trillion to 1.8 trillion barrels of oil. Called “oil shale” or “shale oil,” according to scientists and petroleum companies, much of it cannot be recovered with current technology due to the costly processing involved and the depth of the deposits buried beneath the Rocky Mountains.

Still, if only half can be extracted, scientists believe the amount is nearly triple the oil reserves of Saudi Arabia.

U.S. Oil Reserves Get a Big Boost
Chevron-Led Team Discovers Billions of Barrels in Gulf of Mexico's Deep Water

An oil discovery by Chevron Corp. has bolstered prospects that petroleum companies will be able to tap giant reserves that lie far beneath the deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico.

Oil analysts and company executives said newly released test results from a well 175 miles off the coast of Louisiana indicate that the oil industry will be able to recover well more than 3 billion barrels, and perhaps as much as 15 billion barrels, of oil from a geological area known as the lower tertiary trend, making it the biggest addition to U.S. petroleum reserves in decades. The upper end of the estimate could boost U.S. reserves by 50 percent.


Mexico's gonna tap into this someday....

The Dims have put this country behind 40 or more years in oil production and discovery, refining and drilling.....now we WILL live it, like it or not..
 
How many new refinery permits have been requested in the last 10 years ?
How many have been closed ?

and a lot of that oil you speak of is just like global warming, largely theory and unproven.

This idiots who want to bankrupt our nation just because we want to bankrupt the nation tilting at windmills and trying to find technologies that will extract the unextractable are crazy. Imagine how much global warming those unextractable oil deposits would fix.

Over five times as expensive to extract as normal oil reserves... not worth the price.

The conservative rape of America is over. You've been in power for 30 years, tilting at windmills, raping all American values and destroying all the progress liberals have ever made. Now America is but a decadent shell of what it was before, slowly being consumed on the inside. But we're going to fix that once we take power from you idiotic heartless bastards in a year. :321:
 
I am not sure it is fixable at this point. Well that depends on whether you considre the probable outcome a fix or not. Winning is going to suck just about as big as a loss in this "fix".
I think salvaging what we can of the american lifestyle will become very difficult.

Everything is fixable in the longterm. Our lifestyle will undoubtedly change, but that doesn't mean it has to get worse. I don't necessarily see our current lifestyle as the pinnacle of human achievement; we're a wasteful species right now, and in general, we treat the planet in a pretty thoughtless way. I think the fix starts with re-evaluating that, and trying to work & play in a way that establishes a more symbiotic relationship with the environment, which is why renewables are the way to go ultimately.

It could end up being a very positive thing.
 
USC, oncelor, very nice input indeed. You guy's are reading a lot.
Bravo outstanding indepth knowledge of the oil business.
 
Dhula they usually show a junior high level of economics like you.
Here we have so high school and college level by Bravo (he read a lot about energy discoveries).
I can't wait till Obama wins then my fellow liberals will feel OK to be happy and optimistic.
