Some people have seen too many old movies with gushers spewing oil all over the landscape. Once the new well is drilled and put in production, there is nothing like the visual dispoilation caused by windmill farms. Drill now.

We can agree on that; but not the safety net that helps my friends who are disabled and unable to work. Believe me, disabled people can sometimes work but sometimes can't work; employers want reliable workers who won't need so much sick time. It's a legitimate concern. It's a fantasy to think that people will help others out. We need single payer health care, an end to insurance that profits on others ill fortune, massive cuts in military spending, re-regulation of out of control greedy selfish corporations, an end to corporations having the rights of individuals, taxes on religious institutions and buildings, massive cuts in corporate subsidies. Taxes CAN be lower if we change our priorities and adopt a progressive agenda. I am all for cutting CORPORATE WELFARE.

Funny how alternative energy is screwing up our economy more then saving the enviorment. We need a better alternative to oil, but until that alternative can take oil's place perminantly, we need oil as much as we can right now. Unless we solve cold fusion,

DRILL NOW!

Nothing would make me happier than to see the welfare/warfare state go away. How about we compromise and cut both military spending AND entitlement spending to finance it?

Sure, I hope that they come down in price, and that research is successful. But to federally fund programs to further this with taxpayer dollars just isn't prudent.
