I don't trust govt. to do anything right. lol
But you really think that "illegal aliens" would take those oil jobs? That hasn't happened down in the Gulf (where it would be a lot easier for Mexicans to do it) so why do you think it would happen in the mainland of the U.S.?
I'm no oil rigger...but as I understand it, it's a high paying job with a ton of benefits. Would turn all the people protesting into hard working, highly paid contributors to society...instead of angry and pissed. And it could turn the entire economy around with all those new high paying jobs giving 1.2 million people a lot more buying power.
At least that's what I'm thinking.
It's got to be better than throwing money at companies like Solyndra in a desperate attempt to force solar energy to take off.
And speaking of solar energy...I still say that I personally have THE plan to kickstart that: Instead of handing money to companies like Solyndra, how about HIRING them to cover the desert here in Nevada with solar panels and wind turbines. Energy problems SOLVED.
