Do solar. Do wind. Do conservation. <BR/><BR/>Do it all. Do it now.The cup is half full of something I don't likehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11683679457196177381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32534894.post-50515866286311931232008-06-16T16:56:00.000-04:002008-06-16T16:56:00.000-04:00Hey, if we drill deep enough in Lake Michigan, we ...Hey, if we drill deep enough in Lake Michigan, we might hit some Chinese oil!

One thing that really bothers me about him is that, as a "pastor," he seems to be awfully loose with his facts and quick with his smears.<BR/><BR/>Two main problems with his "theories" are: 1) It will take years before we can get usable gas from wherever he wants to drill; and 2) If the oil continues to be sold on the open market, it will be subject to market forces that supposedly run off supply and demand. No doubt OPEC will cut their output if the US begins injecting new oil into the market.<BR/><BR/>The only way I see Walberg's "plan" working is to sell the oil within in the US only in a closed market with price controls, something he will be adamantly against.Jeremy Hooverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09598418439914012036noreply@blogger.com
