If he was smart, he'd call the energy reserves currently at rest under federal land a shared national resource, and couple expanded us energy production with a nationalized counterpart to the private energy producers..

It's a stupid idea.. But it would address the issue, be completely socialist, probably prove quite popular and give him an incredible amount of power and control..

The Repubs would block it, of course.. and he could rail at them for keeping the "People's Oil" away from them.. and handing it off to a, OMG! GREEDY CARTEL!!

Imagine the shitstorm THAT would kick off.. ?

And every time a republican brought up energy, he'd just accuse them of being in the pocket of their rich pals!

But he's not that smart.. Big energy would shit themselves at the thought of having to compete with an entity that doesn't have to show a profit.. Gas prices could be whatever he wanted.

It would be an election year nightmare for the R's..
