I say Obama tells the oil companies, look i want to become energy independent. I would like alternative enegy in the mix, but i know oil will be a key part of energy for many more generations. So here is what I will do ... you tell me where the best reserves are that are the most cost effective and quickest to get and we will approve drilling in those areas.

You guys go get it and as long as oil is under $50 a barrel i will give you a tax break as an incentive to explore and drill so we continue to reduce our dependence on imported oil even when the price is low. If oil goes over $90 a barrel (which it may not ever again if he did this since we would start to be more self sufficient and all that oil from other countries creates excess supply so the price stays low) you need to pay a windfall tax on back to the government. Between $50 - $90 a barrel it is normal business tax.
