It does, 100%

Oklahoma is going to fail and it's going to fail hard over the next decade. The writing is on the wall. The state is completely tied up in the Oil and Gas industry and our tax base is largely production taxes on oil - some of the lowest such taxes in the country, I might add. We're drawing on a naturally limited resource pool to begin with and we're offering those resources up at a lower cost than anyone else. It's only a matter of time until we run out, and once Oklahoma is out of oil were largely going to be notable for opiate overdoses and meth labs.

If we had half the production tax they're charging in the Bakken, Oklahoma would have no trouble rebuilding infrastructure and shifting to new industries, but we're going to be content collecting pennies right up until there's no more oil left to pump

the sooner state meets its fate

suck it up and deal with it stop acting like its not expected literally everyone expects it who paid any attention at all during the election cycle which was supposed to be your job idiots

do you want them to just not report on it? or just write the same articles but start them all with "As expected,"?

not true, you'll have the earthquakes and flammable tap water from fracking too

These haven't been so bad lately actually

This is because, even though the official state policy is that Fracking and Wastewater Injection Do Not Cause Earthquakes, our toothless regulatory agency asked our drillers to voluntarily cap a number of injection wells and fearing the place in the spotlight they were occupying those companies complied

I bought a house in the Tulsa area a couple years ago when I went through an extended patch of brain brokedness and I hate myself every day for it.

This place is sooooo loving dead. Seems like the suburban trash humans around the cities actively cheer the death of the cities and they think we can milk this oil poo poo until Jesus comes back. And that's not a euphemism for more well-thought-out worldviews. That's a comprehensive breakdown of their politics.

this reminds me of the tweet from some NYPD court house a few days ago where an undercover cop begged some random dude to hook him up, and when the victim finally relented and found him $20 worth of drugs, not even making any profit, he got arrested and charged as a dealer

so i guess that'd a death penalty under trpl.smlbvp

One thing they do around here is go to people who take medications, tell them their mother is dying of cancer and is in pain and could you please help her, just sell me a couple pills, and then arrest them as dealers. In some instances they just give them the pills because they're not dealers and just want to help somebody in pain. Bing bong bing, two years' probation, instant felon.
