12 Dec Should the U.S. expand offshore oil drilling?
“The debate on U.S. offshore drilling is ongoing in the United States.
The Trump administration released a draft in January 2018 proposing a massive extension of offshore leasing, which would make more than 90% of U.S. waters available to oil and gas companies.
Those in favor of offshore drilling state that it reduces United States dependency on imported oil, further reducing current fuel prices and leads to less trade deficit.
Opponents and many environmentalists are concerned about the dangers of oil spills. Oil spills in the past have led to decreased tourism and low income for fishermen, not to forget the catastrophic damage to flora and fauna. What do you think? Should the U.S. expand offshore oil drilling?
“
Today is the day. Now is the moment. Vote for change.

Posted at 08:38h, 25 DecemberWhile Trump is selling a wall, drug traffickers continue to enter our country through tunnels. What planet are we moving to when greed which ignores climate change and pollution renders this planet uninhabitable. Unemployment is at its lowest? Who’s counting the people who no longer qualify for unemployment insurance? The economy was on its way up before Trump took office. The deficit is through the roof. Who is going to pay for that? Trump is the most ignorant and immoral president we have ever had in this country. Why is everyone OK with that?
