It's a spooky question exactly how much (if any) money the General Fund gets paid for successful (or not) oil exploration on public lands. The Federal Mining Act allows free prospecting, and mining claims for less than coffee money. Good luck getting American Big Oil to admit to exporting one barrel of oil for every two they import to create a local shortage, to gouge the gasoline price, much less taking everyone's publicly owned oil in the ground on public lands essentially for free, and exporting half of it also during this time of shortage. Whether this is seen as facts or politics, is in the wallet of the beholder. Regards, Larry.
