Cutting back regulation and cheap domestic energy would do wonders for this country and our standard of living.

You won't find an argument from me. Cheap, unsubsidized energy is one place where they could make some jobs in the private sector, IMHO.

Government wouldn’t have to spend anything to get it going.

Just pull down the barriers and get out of the way.

I think cheap, unregulated drilling rights allows me (as Exxon) to drill on (or under) your property with impunity.

IF you have a problem YOU sue Exxon.

Dont YOU worry 'bout me disposing my - entirely EPA defined as SAFE - drilling waste underneath you home. Do NOT worry - its safe - experts will assure you its safe.

Do YOU want to sue for your IMAGINARY reasons?

The drilling/frac industry ASSURES that NONE of this is dangerous. There is NO regulation concerning the matter...

It MUST be o.k., then..
