Some simple logic. We need crude oil and will continue to need it for the foreseeable future. We are currently importing crude oil and paying other countries for it. We are also the owner of proven crude oil reserves. The infrastucture and labor necessary to bring those reserves to market will generate millions of dollars in sales and wages (if not billions), and that's even if all we do is stick it in the Strategic Oil Reserve. And we will be reducing the amount we pay out for foreign crude supplies.
Jobs, revenue, and a reduced trade deficit. Seems like a no-brainer to me.
Your argument that it isn't a long term solution is like saying 0% of everything is better than 20% of something.
