Our drilling has become more technically challenging, while the middle east's hasn't. What paradigm shift has occurred to indicate that the point I'm making is dated by that data?

Open up ANWR and those problems all go away.

Other than cars, we should have made huge moves to solar a decade ago,.. but its hard to tax and regulate the Sun, and there lies the problem.

I like how the government auctions off something that doesn't belong to the government. Open it up and watch oil prices go down rapidly.
