Energy From Fracking Will Go On World Market And Not US.

All the tracking that is polluting the land is an insult. What puts salt to the wounds is the fact that a lot of that energy will be sold to China and other customers overseas and not here. Prices for energy will go up here as a result. Corporations want to build LNG plants in Alaska so natural gas can be exported to the world market.
