Yes/No to fracking on YOUR property

If the company that fracks came to my property and asked if they could work there I would say no. I would say no because what if the water gets contaminated. I wouldn't want to get sick from that, that's nasty. But I would also consider it because we need the oil for our everyday uses. I think i would say no because I wouldn't want people on my property working, that would get loud and obnoxious.
