Agree. I'm an "all of the above" guy. Drill baby drill, but also do things smart/green where it makes sense. There is absolutely a place for electric cars. I will say I'm not a fan of wind farms, they take a looooong time to return on investment or CO2. And are ugly and noisy as heck.

is eviscerating our farming capacity and concentrating what’s left in the hands of agribusiness conglomerates a good national security move? one could argue that it leaves you dependent on food imports
I'm in agreement with you there. It's a complicated subject, and has broader implications than first glance would suggest.
