California is on the verge of a new gold rush. Expanded hydraulic fracturing -- or "fracking" -- at the Monterey Shale formation is sparking estimates that 15 billion barrels of oil could be accessed, along with millions of jobs and huge contributions to the domestic energy supply.

Even the state's green-friendly Democratic governor, Jerry Brown, says "the potential is extraordinary."

But standing in the way is a flurry of anti-fracking bills. At last count, 10 were on the table, all introduced by Democrats seeking tighter controls over the controversial technology.

Some of the measures take aim at how crude is extracted from rock layers beyond the reach of conventional drilling.

My parents left that ignorant state when I was 12 years old...best thing they could've ever done!

I'm no expert on the matter, but from what I know, "fracking" is bad for the enviroment and is the worst way to get oil.

That being said, the idiots that other Californians elected, not me could definetely eff up boiling a pot of water.

There are always two sides to a story.

I've read plenty of things that throw cold water on the "bad for the environment" argument. Not saying they are true, but like "climate theory", I distrust objections by environmentalists who have already proven themselves to be lying bastards.

Now it might be more expensive, but that's for the oil companies to work out.

Just my two cents. Worth what you payed for it.

True that Tom, true that.

Bottom line, America has plenty of oil fields/places to drill. But the damn enviromentalists are the ones keeping us dependant on foriegn oil!
