Paris hilton rebuttal

Offshore drilling and new technology won't help for atleast another 10 years. If we started offshore drilling we could potentially lower the price of foreign oil coming in but it's only a temporary solution. I think we should be investing in technology.
 
right? what sense does it make to spend money for a solution thats only going to put us 10 years back. The pressure of oil reserves running out is the engine behind the discovery of new technology
 
Offshore drilling is a waste of time now and it wont do a damn thing to 'solve' rising gas prices (ask us Canadians who have lots of active drilling in our country yet see no relief at the pumps). Americans missed the 'offshore drillin' boat already and if they dont start to plan ahead now (with serious intent), they're going to miss the boat once again.

i saw this on leno the other night and i think it's hilarious. the mccain ad was fucking stupid and i'm so glad something like this came of it. props to paris and whoever directed her in making this. very very funny.
 
You are uninformed. The United States has been drilling offshore for a very, very, long time. The Gulf is the second biggest offshore fuel sources in the entire world next to the UKNS/Norweigan North Sea. Offshore drilling is gigantic and has been for decades and decades. It's not new in anyway. That interview was probably referring to drilling off of Alaska, which has to go through government approval. If a well is economic, they'll drill it.

National production does not affect national pump prices. They are in no way connected. A country can use for national production, export limits, price control, or a number of other things to affect regional prices but this has nothing do do with supply (or demand) as this is a global market.

GET WIT IT NIGGA.
 
I was refering to new offshore drilling locations (ANWR being an example of one of the new proposed sities), not the pre-existing ones like the gulf.

Sorry homie, hugz?
 
Still makes no sense. If it's financially viable, they'll drill it. Higher crude prices means more shit is viable. More wells means more supply. Supply should theoretically affect prices with any good, but it don't. It's all some bullshit psychological non-correlated traded commodity. Shit's whack.
