Less than 23% of the offshore leases and drilling permits issued are currently being used. This is not about drilling. It's about leasing more public land for 3 dollars per acre per year to oil companies so they can use it to inflate their stated reserves and boost their stock prices when they aren't going to be drilling it. It's just a land grab, and the price is too low BTW. We need to raise leasing fees.
