The Eagle Ford shale play currently employs 120,000 people. There are several plays that are booming and production will continue to increase. I'm not sure about the two million but if you were to extrapolate the numbers to the plays it's not an unreasonable number.
From the OPl link:
The boom in non-conventional petroleum in 2012 added nearly 500,000 direct jobs, according to a study by research firm IHS. The total impact from the sector was 2.1 million jobs added including workers in oil-related lodging, food, transportation and construction.
Our little commie douchenozzles got the attention-span of a fruitfly...those who bothered with the link never get past the first couple sentences and then start screeching.
