We need to start extracting this oil yesterday. It would generate some positive cash flow into the country, lower prices, and generate jobs.

Um...you're suggesting that we should just let China steal our oil from right under our noses in the interest of keeping prices high to encourage alternative energy development? We're going to end up paying China for oil that they slant drilled right out from under our own soil...how does that make sense?
