In Texas of course, low drilling for oil and gas means a lot of out of work folks, especially roughnecks. I just don't get the Obama administration's hatred of the oil industry. It purports to be for jobs, but it seems determined to kill off the industry and the jobs of the roughnecks--just the type of laborers it should favor. I am all in favor of alternative and cleaner energy sources, but for the foreseeable future, we need to drill to get off the foreign oil addiction and in hard economic times we need to keep the industry healthy with lots of jobs. Gas drilling is absolutely dead. Until the price decline, there was a tremendous boom in Tarrant County drilling in the Barnett Shale for nat gas--including underneath DFW airport.
