Oil and gas development is key to US future. Don't ban it. Regulate it.

This article is discussing all of the benefits of drilling more for oil and gas. It states that by 2040, 80% of the world's energy will still come from fossil fuels. The U.S. has enough oil and natural gas to supply the whole world. Thanks to new technologies, we can extract oil and gas at unreachable places. However, I think this article is a bunch of bullcrap and is classified as junk media.This article was sponsored by Wellborn Sullivan Meck & Tooley, P.C., an oil and gas company. Because of this, it can be inferred this article is highly biased.This article is stating none of the risks of fracking, such as pollution of our water supply.It also misleading. It states that these resources will help America energy independent. What this really means is that they sell it to foreign nations and little will go to the ordinary Americans. This article is constantly using fear, such as the power of oil, in order to scare people in order to support this. I just hope our government makes the right decision for once on this issue.
