b) Support
c) Support
d) Support

Answer 1

I agree with ALL of them.



Finally someone that is looking past the Oil deal.



ROCK ON REPUBLICAN!!

Answer 2

Actually democrats support all of these programs with some reasonable qualifications that Bush and McCain and Big Oil don't like.



1) Big Oil wants more subsidies to drill

2) Big Oil doesn't want to push forward and clean up its drilling practices.

3) Big Oil doesn't want to spend money protecting the environment including migratory caribou and bird life.

4) the nuclear companies don't want to spend money on proper use and disposal of nuclear fuel and waste.

5)I support wind power though many oppose it as the wind powered generators look ugly (as if oil pumps don't)



We are in an extinction right now and the environment is suffering greatly. Our oceans are being poisoned - by poor oil drilling methods, by ships dumping bilge and sewage into the ocean, but dirty leaky ships, by dumping barges full of garbage into the ocean, by nuclear waste dumped in unreachable ocean depths in canisters which are corroding badly, by countries routinely disposing of chemical wastes in third world countries which ends up leaking into the oceans etc.



If you want to see dirty oil production just look to Alberta, Canada. Filthy oil practices.

Answer 3

a) Oppose. Too much potential irreversible environmental damage.

b) Oppose. Same reason.

c) Support, especially for pebble-bed reactors.

d) Support.



Hmm. Two votes with the left, two with the right. I must be a swing voter.

Answer 4

But would you support legislation that says "if you don't drill on public oil leases you have leased at 3 bucks a year per acre within a year, you lose the lease, and we'll lease it to somebody who plans on drilling"?



It's rather pointless to talk about leasing more public land when 10s of millions of acres (more than 60 million) that have been leased aren't being drilled on now, don'tcha think?



What's the point in leasing it if oil companies won't drill on it? You just want them to list it on their assets so they can use that to pump up their stock price or what?

Answer 5

a) oppose

b) support drilling land that is already open

c) support as soon as the next generation reactors are ready to be built

d) support



There isn't enough oil in this solar system that will make the value of the dollar go back up, which is the biggest problem we are facing with high oil prices.

Answer 6

It depends on what "support" means.



I'm totally in favor of allowing companies to do those things with their own money, and make a profit if it works.



I'm totally against giving companies tax money to do any of them. If there's no profit in it without a subsidy, what's the point?

Answer 7

I support all of them.



The libs are being paid to block them,except the windmills.



I'm also for clean coal,oil shale and hydrogen.



Right now,we need oil.
