I do not see that in the article. I see they do not want foreign and private involvement in their oil industry. When push comes to shove out of desperation they will turn to outside investment.

Sarah, if you want to be in the club, you'll need to get with the program. It's the environmentalists.

$10-$15 dollar a gallon gas will quickly make the left wing nutjobs shut the fuck up.

Where does that Electricity come from?

OH NOES NUCLEAR POWER OMG OMG EVIL EVIL

Instead of paying tons of money for gas, you get to pay tons of money for electricity.

That's why we don't have electric cars.

Now there an interesting scenario. When everybody starts driving electric cars, they will have to be charged up. That will place an even higher strain on an already highly strained electrical power grid. Will this then lead to much higher prices and the increasing occurrences of brown outs and shortages?

Yes.

How about the envirowhackos just move out... to the moon... or something.

What happens when Uranium begins to run out?
Not to mention Uranium prices will rise with increased demand.
