When Governor Sarah Palin addressed the Republican Governors Association today, she urged them to find conservative solutions to the nations current economic problems. She called on the govs to find free-market solutions. Thats a tough road when everyone in Washington - Democrat, Independent, Socialist (Bernie Sanders) and unfortunately Republican - is trying big-government-tax-and-spend-come-socialist solutions.
What are those solutions? No doubt, Sarah sees as one of the top solutions the development of more domestic energy. She has made very clear that we should be (1) drilling for more oil in Alaska and that Alaskans want to drill more oil; (2) developing wind energy in Alaska and in other states; (3) developing tidal energy in Alaska and in other states; and (4) developing geothermal energy. The fact is that we are throwing our money away by sending it overseas for foreign oil. Free market reform of the domestic energy industry would bring tens of thousands of new jobs to the nation, lower energy costs to the nation and stop the cash hemorrhage. Let's get started.
Don’t stop with importing oil.
MAKE EVERYTHING HERE, MAKE NOW.
