Congratulations! We live in the only country on Earth whose oil and gas production is increasing along with its reserves. America is enjoying an energy renaissance while the rest of world is suffering a decline in reserves and production and a corresponding increase in prices.

This is big news. Cheap, abundant, domestic energy affects everything from employment to cost of living, and from the environment to national security. It makes the U.S. more appealing to manufacturers. And our dependency on OPEC oil continues to decrease.

These newfound energy resources are a great national treasure. Watch this video for my thoughts.
