10 years of drilling and construction for what wouldn't even supply us with one year of oil at our current rate of consumption. Who this will benefit, other than the companies heading up the project, I have no idea. Oh, yeah, it will give some Alaskans jobs for ten years. Then after 1 year of oil production they will be unemployed, the companies who did all the construction will declare bankruptcy, and the tax payers will foot the bill for the cleanup and tear down of the facilities. Genius.
