proceeds of that tax put away so when history repeats itself and there's another exxon valdez.oil spill disasters. and the republicans just killed it. and at the same time the trump administration has also just hacksawed the safety regulations that are supposed to provent oil spills in the first place. saying they want to overhaul how federal officials monitor safety procedures on offshore drilling organizations and kibosh the rules and get rid of the rules on the grounds overly burdensome to the industry. these things they just got rid of were the rules that were supposed to prevent another deepwater horizon style blowout. why would we need those rules? but that's how they are approaching their new gigantic policy change which will open up virtually the western and eastern seaboards of the united states for fair game nor offshore drill leases and trigger a feeding frenzy. nearly all u.s. coastal waters and off the coast of california protected for decades. more than a billion acres in the arctic and along the eastern seaboard. governors of both parties lined up against the pro

was written into that law that allowed for the pipeline to be built from the north slope down to valdez in southern alaska, that all of the oil that would come through that pipeline would have to be on american-built ships with american sailors. and guess what, ships were built. mariners were hired. and oil was put on those tankers and shipped into the american ports. later that oil was shipped offshore to japan. and over the years the petroleum industry was able to iddle away at that requirement of american ships built in america with american mariners and so today there is no quirement that any oil developed in the united states, any natural gas developed in he united states, and exported be on american-built ships. so what does it mean? it means that coming into our ports, to take a strategic national asset, our oil and our natural gas, to put it on a foreign-built ship with foreign sailors, foreign mariners who come and go, who don't pay taxes in the united states, ships that are not built in the united states, with american steel, american-made engines and all of the electronics an
