JimCT- to clarify, in reference to the cost/benefit analysis for ANWR, that is in my opinion, based on the sensitivity of the area for breeding populations. In the future, as oil becomes more scarce and technology continues to limit the impact, I might change my mind. I don't see it as an issue of it's now or never.
I think Jeb Bush's opposition indicates that there are substantial risks. If anyone should be pro drilling, it would be him.
There certainly will be some jobs created.
I will have to find the sources for the effect of drilling on prices, but they are ridiculously low given the rancor that surrounds the debate.
