let's keep the natural gas in the united states. what the republicans are calling this now is the keystone export pipeline. they don't want any restrictions on the pipeline being built and the oil being sold to other countries and not to the united states. the same thing is true with how they view natural gas produced in the united states. let's just export it across the planet even though the department of energy has determined that there will be a 57% increase in the price of natural gas if we allow that to happen. and, so, their policy is essentially oil above all. not all of the above. it's whatever the oil industry wants and they want higher prices. right now the american petroleum institute does not want the reserve deployed because that will lower prices. they always opposed increased fuel economy standards because that meansless oil is consumed. they are backing policies in their tax breaks but the tax breaks for wind and solar and the competition of the 21st century being taken off the books. the president is on the right t
