One more consideration.  If any of these corporations want to camp out on our leases and not aggressively develop them, then they should lose those leases for failure to honor the 'duty to develop' provisions in the lease.

Pt. Thomson gas and oil was warehoused by Exxon for over 30 years- as Exxon lied to us about its intentions.  As a result Alaska lost billions of dollars- money that could have been deposited into our Permanent Fund and earned compound interest for 30 years.

Other countries will revoke a lease quickly if they are not developed.  As a result, those leases get developed.  

Just saying.
