Permian, ANWR, Prudhoe, Bakkan…. and so much more. NOW is the time to shut off the Saudi oil cartel flow valve and develop our own God-given natural resources. The only excuse not to become energy independent is a political excuse.
The inherent link between energy and security, and energy and prosperity, is real and recognized by every American except sketchy politicians and deceived faux environmentalists. We have the resources, we have the technology, we have the manpower. America has the highest environmental and worker safety standards in the world… it’s time to say, "Screw Arab oil. We’re making America great again!" We’ve always led in oil, gas and mineral development innovation. Let’s tap it.
Politics have kept us beholden to countries that do not like us and use energy as a weapon. It’s a farce when Pres. Obama and other progressives claim we’re not reliant on those resources anymore. And a sicker farce is the claim we must go to war over oil.
Shut off foreign rulers’ flow that has kept their peasants poor and terrorizingly desperate, and watch the world become a safer place.
And here at home, shovel out the BS "Peak Oil" claim that demands we abandon conventional energy sources in favor of unrealistic, uneconomic, unreliable, lobbyist- driven green energy boondoggles. Drill now while we shore up realistic renewables for a legitimate "all of the above" future energy plan.
Be ready for faux environmentalists – with their disdain for American jobs dressed in Carhartts and steel toed boots – to target this massive Texas find, despite all commonsense and responsible reason to explore and produce.
It’s time to unleash the private sector on new refineries, rigs, pipelines, infrastructure, service provisions, etc… all basic needs for more responsible domestic extraction, and all leading to the USA boom our working class deserves.
