I have a question that some one might want to answer. A few years back the oil industry said they found the largest offshore lake of oil ever found but could not drill it because of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR). Since then President Obama opened that offshore drilling in that area only if landbased directional drilling was used. I know with oil prices down it probably is not cost effective to directional drill until the price of oil goes back up. My concern is why are we paying oil companies billions for oil searching when they already know where one of the largest lakes of oil on earth is? Why isnt that "oil searching" money used to help pay for the directional drilling, and fill the pipeline back up. This is not a statement, Im asking because I would like to know? That would most likley solve most of the budget problem, wouldn't it?
