Offshore drilling?

Question

What's up with offshore drilling? If there's as much oil as they say there is off the coasts of Alaska and California (200 years worth) then why don't we get that oil so we can nuke Pakistan. Then we can go over and take their oil too.

The governator is against offshore drilling it but he's a hypocrite. I'm sure he's gotten laid on a lot of boats.

Answer 1

There are allot of cap off wells out in the gulf that has never been used,and you see tankers at the super port all the time.There is oil out there ,its just that they are not using all the wells they have drilled in the past.Alabama,Mississippi,and Louisiana have been drilling oil for years,the only two States you can not drill off of is Texas,and Fla.

Answer 2

You do seem to drift off point, but I do agree that we need to look everywhere for oil.

Answer 3

Pakisthan has oil, do your homework. We can do offshore drilling  and who cares, s***w this earth. All our human life is worth oil, nothing more. We can become Gengis Khan clan, we will occupy the whole world, we are born barbarians.

Answer 4

wow you are a tool :)

Answer 5

Bush's trying to do away with the ban on drilling which his father implemented--and Pakhistan ain't got enough oil to be worth the effort.  However, if we drill for oil then most of it will get exported and that will make the oil magnates only richer, but not bring the oil prices(and gas prices with it)down to make it affordable for the average worker again....so why even drill for oil?  They had a report about this on NBC news last week---the bottom line is that we got enough oil to support ourselves, because you forgot the oil resources found in front of the coast of Lousiana.  The problem is that the U.S. already exports oil and that the global market decides the price by supply and demand....
