I always thought of oil shale as a product that was mined, but since you are talking about drilling wells I assume you are talking about hydrofracking.
Or are there other ways to get oil from oil shale by drilling a well?
The price of oil produced from hydrofracking will never be low enough to pay for the earthquakes caused by it. People will allow a little dirty air or water in exchange for cheap oil and jobs, but they won't accept earthquakes.
