Oh heavenly father forgive this troubled soul for he knows not what he does.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

IS THERE ANYBODY ALIVE OUT THERE???

Endorsed!

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

And then you libs wonder why the working class votes Republican.


This bill is anti-poor, anti-worker, "pie in the sky" bgwackoism. Can't buy oil from overseas, can't drill it here, and nothing is ready to immediately replace it. You are asking for blood from a stone, or better yet oil from an empty barrel is more like it. And when will you pass this anti-worker, anti-poor bill? Just in time for christmas. And they say I am the hard-hearted SOB who wants the poor to eat dog food.

I agree with NCYankee here. This would be the wrong thing to do when the Atlasian economy is sliding back into recession. And there is the added uncertainty of what will happen with the Human Rights Act, which could also affect oil prices.

Five years people, FIVE YEARS that this has been in place now. The carribou have not gone extinct and the hasn't been a massive environmental catastrophe destroying hundreds of wild animals. Now, maybe some safety guidelines are in order to prevent any potential problems but the idea that opening this up is some kind of disaster of the first order is Leftist hyperbole to prevent it from happening in RL. Considering this was done five years ago with no substantial problems since,  I see no reason to shut it off, just so that the leftists and the enviro-facists won't have a giant hole of reality blown into their anti-energy production, anti-growth, and anti-poor campaign of intellectual dishonesty and flawed pseudo-science.

The Pacific Region already banned it. Let's repeal this stupid federal law.

Oh, and:

[Sbane]

So do the oil workers just shoot the polar bears on sight or something? Or what are you trying to get at?

[Bacon King]

If it's been existing for such a long time without any serious negative effects I don't see what banning it again would do.

Its banned in the pacific.

Okay, then withdraw this worthless bill.

[bgwah]

We should remove this unnecessary federal law.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

We should remove this unnecessary federal law.

No. The region has prohibited there is no need to reinstate a "worthless" federal ban on drilling. So your bill is unnecessary.   The region should have the perogative to reopen drilling in the future.

[Ebowed]

The region should have the perogative to reopen drilling in the future.

The Pacific Region has banned it through its own environmental regulations, as well as separately called for a repeal of the federal law in an advisory resolution.  I am interested in the logic though in how this is 'anti-poor' policy.

This alone, is not. But in conjunction with the other policies proposed by bgwah is definately anti-poor as they will crimp the production and supply of energy and thus cause prices to skyrocket. And the alternatives to replace oil with, withouout basically destorying millions financially first, exists only in you guy's minds.

What the Pacific region decides to close off is entirely its own affair, irregardless of how naive or dumb it may be. I don't see why you need a federal ban reinstated when you guy's have already "taken care of it". Does it just make you guys feel good to have double layering of bans on something?

I don't believe the Pacific region can decide one way or the other on allowing or prohibiting drilling in ANWR as it is a federally owned/managed wildlife preserve.

It's the fed's land, so it's the fed's decision.

Damn this could get interesting.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

Are we ready for a vote on this unnecessary and degenerate trash?

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

This is now at final vote. Please vote AYE, NAY, or Abstain.



Nay

[bgwah]

aye

[Ban my account ffs!]

Since this is likely under federal jurisdiction.. being the Arctic NATIONAL wildlife refuge and all...

I vote aye

There are plenty of less environmentally sensitive areas from which to extract oil within Atlasia.  If it becomes an issue in the future, we can always reconsider this bill.

[HappyWarrior]

Aye

[#CriminalizeSobriety]
