Energy Bill.. does anyone think we got an energy bill?

Drilling in Alaska was dropped. opening up off shore drilling was dropped. increase in production of price supports for gasohol and i believe demand to increase use in refineries.

tax credits for oil industry about 11 billion dollars when they are making obscene profits now without further incentives to drill.

somehow i come away from the bill passage as a give away to big industry and does nothing much for taxpayers.

oh longer day light saving time. somehow i don't think the bill was worth the price to get longer day light saving time.
