If We Drill,
We Don't Get the Oil huffingtonpost.com — The oil that comes from that drilling will not be United States property (Republicans
aren't suggesting we nationalize the oil companies, are they?). It will be the
property of whichever oil company got the rights to that contract. They can
then sell it to whoever they like — and they will. They will sell it on the
world market, so the Chinese will have just as much access to the oil that
comes out of the coast of Florida
as we will.
