No Drilling

The market goes down and the cost of crude oil goes up. Possibly $150 per barrel by July 4. Ouch!

Is there no end in sight? Is there nothing our great nation can do?

Did you now that China and Mexico are drilling off the shores of Florida but we, the United States of America, can not? China is drilling. Do they have a regulating body regarding safety and oil spills?

Katrina hit the Gulf of Mexico in 2006. Not one of "our" drilling rigs leaked a drop of oil. There were no failures of equipment or accidents. What do you think the Chinese rigs are like?

We are the United States of America with our hands tied. Ridiculous and potentially environmentally hazardous.

'til later
