    to document how ANWR leads us to energy independence. Oh wait, it doesn't. IF ANWR produced what it's proponents claim it will produce (the number keeps increasing magically), it will have little impact on today or future oil usage. In fact, to the degree that decrease oil prices, it will simply encourage less energy efficiency and more oil use. But that's the con of the Republicon game.

    "New oil from Alaska would, however, reduce foreign oil dependence slightly, EIA said. With the United States currently on track to get 54 percent of its oil from overseas by 2030, EIA said, if ANWR were opened, the share of oil from foreign countries would drop to 48 percent in the best-case scenario or 52 percent if ANWR turns out to produce at the lower end of the range of projections."
