It's phenomenally short-sighted to think drilling locally is a good
idea,
it's not. Given the rapidly declining oil reserves world-wide it's FAR
BETTER to buy oil from overseas NOW and bleed them dry. Sure, you boost
their local economies, but that'll crash and burn HARD once their oil
runs
out. By then we'll have engineered our own superior solutions and
continue
to march forward.

Well, that would imply that Norway isn't the super deal a few here have
made it out to be.


It's certainly a better place to live in than the United States, other
than the climate.

I am sure many people in the world agree with you. Why haven't you
moved there?
