Well, that should be cause for some fractures in the craniums of the anti-frackers out there. Lib heads a poppin'. WINNING you can believe in.

My EX B-I-L, a Liberal with a PHD told me we were going to run out of Oil n 50 Years.

When I told him, well, maybe in 500 Years, he was apoplectic.

Great news, now can they please stop forcing ethanol on us?

But what about all 5 of the idiots who bought this idiot car?!

How many times have we been told we passed peak oil only to find billions more untapped resources? And Alaska’s North Slope was supposed to run out years ago. I’m not saying that the supply in inexhaustible and that quick-charging electric vehicles shouldn’t be developed, but we won’t run out in the next 30 years.

Good, then auto manufacturers can stop being “creative” to save weight and increase mpg. Like BMW did with the run flat fiasco eliminating the spare tire and forcing owners to spend $150 more per tire for run flats.

Autos have been forced to run cleaner and use less gas p/mi which is what started the whole fossile fuel riff in the first place.

We've developed a more conservative attitude about burning fossile fuels and it should stick around for another hundred years or so.

There is no longer a neccesity for fuel / oil conservation.

A clear case of the EPA has done its job so it can now pack up and go home .....

Go get a job and go to work.

So, when will we get the alcohol out of the gas?

[dangus]

Never said the Trump administration. This is an interpretation of the decision to relax CAFE standards, which is senseless NOW that Ford no longer makes cars and Chrysler no longer exists.

[RatRipper]

I believe there should be balance and judgement in economics. Personal needs and available economic resources guide the decisions of all. It may not be an economic “imperative”, but to a lot of us “regular folk”, with gas in the $2.70 a gallon range, it makes sense on a personal level to conserve some and not just throw money away. I could afford it, but I am not going to go out and buy a Hummer; neither am I going to buy a Smart Car or a $70,000 pick-up truck.

Untapped oil reserves in the South China Sea are as high as 200 billion barrels and trillions of CF of natural gas...that’s why China is building military bases there. “Oil shortage” is just another lie.

Does this mean our Military won’t be paying $150 a Gallon for Bio Jet Fuel any more?
