Supply is controlled by OPEC. If drilling in Alaska produced any significant amount of oil to flood the world market, OPEC would just cut production by that much to negate any effect on price.

THINK ABOUT IT!!! Why would a company fight for something that would LOWER THEIR PROFITS!!!!! If drilling in Alaska would really reduce oil prices, Exxon and all the other companies would be totally against it.

As for T. Boone Pickens. You have to see through his nonsense. He knows electricity is a totally gamed system now. He wants grants and tax breaks so he can build wind farms for free, then in the end you all will be paying the same for electricity you do now, the only difference is T. Boone Pickens will be producing it for free from wind.
