On an environmental side, I can see the desire to stop drilling.
On an economy side, and until we get the alternate fuels up and available and effective, I still see the need for maintaining the current status and expanding it somewhat.
The idea of keeping it in the country is nice....but we are part of a global economy, and the fact is....other countries pay more.
Is additional drilling the only answer...No.
Is it part of the solution....yes.
If we all conserve what we can will it help as well...sure
