As New Mexico is a very poor state with very little major industry except oil and gas, the industry supplies fully one-third of all state tax income. And while this is a fact the legislators know, the enviro-nazis in Santa Fe are always trying to shut them down believing that all energy needs can be supplied by slice-and-dice windmills and bird-cooking solar panels/mirrors followed by skies filled with rainbows and unicorns. The latest area off-limits is an area in NW NM near Chaco Canyon National Historic Park. Due to protests, the BLM has canceled scheduled leasing of parcels for drilling.

an all-time record of 171 million barrels I was curious how this compares to Niagara Falls so I Googled and calculated.
Average annual flow rate at the Horseshoe Falls is 85,000 cubic feet per second which is equivalent to 41.6 million barrels per hour.

You would not see this under a dimoKKKRAT administration.

That is a fact. Our legislature is the best at cutting off their nose to spite their face. They are none too friendly to agriculture, or most businesses and that doesn’t make sense either.

New Mexico suffers the same ills as
California. The major metropolitan
areas controlled by left wing lunatics,
where the smaller towns mostly in the
southern half are pretty strong
conservative. Lots of ranchers with
guns. Below I-40 is a lot of wide
open territory.
