I can't say that I blame Alaska for wanting to do this. They get tax dollars based on volumes of natural gas or oil shipped, they don't really care who buys it since regulators won't let it come down to the continental US. Further, if they are producing they get jobs for building the pipeline, get jobs at the shipping point, get jobs at the drilling points, and they get taxes from all those jobs too.
We are such big idiots here, we won't let our own gas/oil be sold to our own people.
