Now how much money is he spending to open up drilling opportunities off-shore and in places like ANWR?

That's how he's SELECTING winners.. He's using government regulation to PREVENT exploration, render coal a liability to future EPA regulation (thus stifling investment) and giving money to alternative energy programs thereby subsidizing the competition.

Y'know.. I can probably understand not giving equivalent subsidies to the oil and gas industries that he is to solar/wind. But if he refuses to open up Federal lands to exploration IT'S THE SAME THING AS CHOOSING A WINNER.

You can't win if you're not permitted to play the game..
