By the way, with Canadian tar sands soon to become the largest single source for U.S. oil imports, any advocates of regulatory changes that diminish oil production from offshore U.S. sources on environmental grounds should include in their analysis the environmental effects of marginal increases in tar sands output and other oil sources. (Or did your policy analysis assume that diminished offshore production would be compensated for by people driving less and riding sustainably-fueled robot unicorns more?)
Oil spills, movie stars, robot unicorns and regulation
Nice reminder to consider alternatives when making policy recommendations.
