SUPPORT DRILLING IN THE ARTIC

WE SHOULD DRILL IN THE ARTIC REFUGE

By: Derek Varsalona

Inflation is indeed going down in America but it is still a problem.  The fact of the matter is that inflation is caused by government spending in the economy and the high cost of oil consumption in America.  We need to use every available means of energy at our disposal.  I support drilling in the Arctic Wildlife Refugee.  Drilling in the Arctic will hopefully bring down gasoline prices as it is supply and demand side economics.

President Biden is trying to forbid drilling in the Arctic.  I understand his concern for the animals and their safety.  But inflation is still at an all-time high and something must be done.  While harming the animals is wrong, this is an issue of American survival for both the people and the animals.  I am a person, so drilling for oil affects me as I want inflation to go down even further.  The only way to bring down American prices is to drill baby drill.  But we are not going to just drill our way out of inflation.  We also need free trade and better relations with foes.

I support using every means necessary to bring down oil prices.  One of those is the need to bring down oil prices by drilling everywhere, including in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. As always comments accepted.

Drill now worry later.
