ROMNEY IS GETTING SO UPSET OH MY GOD
I was going to school right next door to Hofstra at the time. The price is about right,
 
Nevermind the fact that gas prices were more than twice that high for months and months prior to that low point.
 
ENERGY

Obama

- Increased oil and gas production
- Increase in coal production and employment
- Have to look to future - double fuel efficiency in cars.
- Doubled clean energy production
- Contributes to lowering energy imports.
- Open new areas for drilling.
- 600,000 jobs in new natural gas production
- Need to figure out efficient energy. This will help reduce demand and keep gas prices lower.
- Romney wants to let industry write policy.
- Want to keep new energy jobs in US not overseas.
- Demand has gone up, but efficiency is going up.
- We are encouraging natural gas production.
- Romney shut down a coal plant in Mass.
- Investing in Clean coal tech. - Same with gas and oil.
- Effieciency and production will reduce savings.
- Oil companies were leaving public leases unused. Use it or lose it. We are reletting.
- Prices were low in 2008 due to recession.
- Have built enough pipeline. But can't ignore clean energy jobs.

Romney

- Oil production was through private enterprise.
- Fed licenses were cut in half.
- Obama is prosecuting producers
- Want to increase coal, gas, nuclear and renewables (ethanol).
- Obama is not helping coal or gas. He is putting up obstacles with new regulation.
- Make US energy Independent with more drilling and more federal permits.
- Bring pipline from Canada.
- Obama cut licenses. Production on public land is down by 14%.
- Coal is not up.
- Prices at pump show Obama's strategy is not working. Gas and elec. is up.
- If the strategy works, costs will go down.
