They currently have more leases than they could drill on for many years to come. They know oil is NEVER going back down if they can claim they got no where to drill and it's all "those environmental NUTS" who are causing the high prices. If they start producing oil from their current leases it will only bring oil prices back down to reasonable prices. And way should they be in a hurry, they are making more money than ever before by just setting on their current leases knowing when they get around to it the oil will already be theirs and not the American publics.

The Democrats never intended this legislation to pass, it was just for show: "A DEMOCRATIC energy bill has died in the Senate -- and it's probably just as well. For the most part, it was election-year symbolism. Several provisions, such as a Justice Department investigation of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, a windfall profits tax and an end to certain oil industry tax breaks, might have stuck it to alleged culprits, but they would have had little or no impact on prices at the gas pump." http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/06/17/AR2008061702037.html Sorry, you obviously need to pay a little more attention.

Does this now mean that Exxon can drill wherever they wish regardless of who owns the land? And is there a great reservoir of oil still untapped in the US that could last another 100 years? Which is rumor and which is fact? Despite it all however that particular way of life is entirely unsustainable, and it must end because it has to. Sorry, am a little confused.
