Today is the day that the bans on oil shale and offshore drilling for oil and natural gas in America have expired. We can now be free from hostile nations that supply us with oil. Just think about it… right off our shores there are reserves estimated to hold over 20 billion barrels of oil and 97 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. And in the west, oil shale is estimated to be between 800 billion and 2 trillion barrels of oil. That is more than three times the proven oil reserves in Saudi Arabia alone.
Americans are now free to pursue vast amounts of our own energy. That’s right; we are finally on our way to developing energy in America for Americans.
Today is truly a great day for all Americans!
God bless America.
