1. The oil companies own my state.

They turned it dead red.
Fight them as hard as you can and sue them as much as you can. They will spill oil, they will not clean it up properly, they will fight any judgement ( like exxon valdez) and whatever money they are ordered to pay, will be reduced by the republican packed courts.

5 billion reduced to just above 500 million. One tenth. http://www.latimes.com/news/la-na-valdez26-2008jun26,0,357396.story#axzz2xz6iPX7c

And is the prince William sound back to normal? No. There is still oil out there in our sound and in our soil to this day.http://response.restoration.noaa.gov/oil-and-chemical-spills/significant-incidents/exxon-valdez-oil-spill/prince-william-sound-recovered.html

And that was just one ship. This is even worse, in my opinion. Fracking frack!

Good that you are being proactive. Others will follow if you lead. You are in the right. Twenty thousand well. My word.
I am sorry.
