Hofmeister, John. “How the U.S. Can Ensure Energy Supply for the Future.” __Vital__ __Speeches of the Day__ 73, 4 (2007): 175-179. In this speech, the author, president of Shell oil states that the US can attain energy security as they define it: knowing we have available and affordable energy for today, tomorrow, and future generations as far out as we can imagine. He suggests that there is still plenty of oil and other energy resources out there, but that government regulations make it hard or unable to access those resources. (Hector Lara)
