Answer 1

Offshore includes a lot of ground.  If we are talking international waters it is a national issue and since they are international waters SOMEONE is going to drill there, if there is a good chance of hitting oil.  If someone is going to drill I would like it better if it was us.

Remember 60 miles off the Florida coast Cuba is exploring with the intent to drill.

Answer 2

I think any kind of drilling is ok as long as they are responsible and clean up their messes and they also pay a descent royalty, Why not open all the areas up to drilling at 25% royalty and lock the money into paying down the national debt?

Answer 3

I think that allowing states to decide for themselves about drilling off their own coasts is one of many needed approaches to our energy problems.
