Seguramente no es por motivos altruistas. Aunque tiene razón en que la independencia energética aumentaría la seguridad de América al evitar el comercio con regímenes brutales y dictatoriales como el de Arabia Saudita, Irán o otros pueblos totalitarios que les proporcionan fondos; Pickens está principalmente interesado en avanzar sus propios intereses económicos en la industria del fracking de gas y petróleo de esquisto.

También desea que la demanda de petróleo y otros combustibles fósiles disminuya para que los precios suban, lo que aumentaría exponencialmente sus márgenes de ganancia. Definitivamente no le preocupan los efectos perjudiciales del fracking en el medio ambiente.
