Communist countries have such a good environmental record (see Chernobyl). So the Gulf of Mexico will so much safer since evil Americans won't be drilling for oil off the coast of Florida
Sounds like a good way to control the peasants.
Why is it that US oil companies are not allowed to drill off of the coast of Florida. But Cuba is able to tap into that very same oil and so that they can sell it back to us at an inflated price?
The United States can easily produce oil from coal for about half what we pay to import it. This is not a new technology. The Nazis flew airplanes with fuel made from coal in WWII. Chemistry and technology in general have come a long way in the past 65 years. There are environmental concerns with producing gasoline from coal. But I would much rather have higher CO2 emissions than have our economy burn down, fall over, and sink into the swamp. These environmental issues could probably be resolved with time.
