Maybe you have a point on the jobs issue, but I'm still in favor of preservation for now.

Ten of the fourteen largest oil companies are state owned. They won't be selling on the open market forever.

I prefer we hang on to our natural resources, too, as much as is possible in a country with no state owned natural resources.

I often wonder if GB will someday regret privatizing all its natural resources....or maybe they do now....such a vulnerable little country.
