[Randex]✓ ■■ What It Takes


Recommended Posts

Last week, I quoted a European businessman who said the salvation of the American economy would be oil extracted from shale. A reader then sent me a slice of Atlas Shrugged, which I quote in today’s column. The character Ellis Wyatt says,

Oil shale. How many years ago was it that they gave up trying to get oil from shale, because it was too expensive? Well, wait till you see the process I’ve developed. It will be the cheapest oil ever to splash in their faces, and an unlimited supply of it, an untapped supply that will make the biggest oil pool look like a mud puddle. Did I order a pipe line? Hank, you and I will have to build pipe lines in all directions . . .

I’ve talked to enough people to know, or believe, that, if the government agrees to get out of the way, we’ll be splashin’ rich. — Jay Nordlinger, National Review Online - The Corner  #
