I agree about the EPA, but let's not forget the role of the Eco-Nazis/ compassion fascist out there. That's why we don't have enough refineries or drilling in Anwar. Case in piont; when the issue was being debated in Congress about Anwar, there was a some public relation stuff our there against drilling. It showed beautiful woods, whitewater rivers, wild life, etc and gave the impression that the oil companies where gonna destroy all this. In fact. Anwar is a barron tundra. Not that that isn't an important eocsystem, it's just the propanda was loaded and not factual. Same with Florida, they won't allow offshore drilling becasue it might harm their toursim. They are part of the problem, not the solution. There are a lot people out there who's thought processes aren't based in reality, and they seem to be the one's running the show and that's not limited to the EPA.
