How much money will drilling in Alaska save us?

Making our engines in vehicles 10% more efficient would be extremely costly and out price most consumers. There will probably be a weight to fuel ratio reduction instead. This will make cars lighter but much more susceptible to an increase in the mortality rates on U.S. highways. 25% 1 Vote

Not much. We have been drilling and pumping here in Alaska since 1977. We do not have enough oil to satisfy the needs and wants of USA. 0% 0 Votes

Not much.

It would take a great deal of labor and materials like steel to drill out the ANWR oil field (which is the Strategic Naval Petroleum Reserve, if I%26#039;m not mistaken).  After all of that, we would only get maybe 900,000 barrels a day out of it.  The USA uses about 9 million bbl/day of gasoline and about 2.7 million bbl of diesel, so just making our vehicles 10% more efficient or just driving more sanely would give us the same savings at far less cost. 25% 1 Vote
