At what price is drilling in ANWR economically feasible

My buds at Independent Sources so nailed this issue I just suggest going there and reading it.  A synopsis:

…….but reading this story about Brazil’s recent discovery of a deep water oil field of 5,000,000,000 to 8,000,000,000 barrels of oil made me think of it…….

……but when the US has a known field of 25 to 50% greater size which is easier to extract it’s exploitation will do nothing to lower prices or decrease foreign oil dependence.

Ditto.  Methinks there’s a lot more to ANWR than simple economics.
