I'd note that the USA is a BIG exporter of oil exploration technology and equipment. Many of these companies are my companies customers.

How does this answer Coolbeans question "why can't we invest in our own resources?" and/or let the oil cos. do so (without burdening the U.S. taxpayer)--Anwar and offshore, etc.? If jobs are so important, wouldn't that also create many many jobs and help to keep oil prices from spiking up?
