If under Carter or 0bama we’d be using kerosene lamps.
Excellent. All thanks to President Trump.
Drill baby drill!
This one week was a bit of fluke. It was just the first time we cracked the balance point, during a week, in 74 years.
At the rate we are going, it will be another year or more before we are consistently a net exporter, but the trend is definitely heading that way.
We are in the midst of a production boom, and we are already solidly the World’s biggest producer of oil, and also the World’s biggest producer of natural gas.

True about total imports vs. exports, and that’s good! We need the increases now.
But don’t be confused.
The U.S. is still a net consumer. We used 19.96 million barrels per day in 2017 are are projected to use 20.47 mbd in 2018. Production will probably average about 10.9 million b/d in 2018.

Really, the oil producers are doing a fine job now. Hope that continues for a long time for the sake of our manufacturing increases over the next few years.
Thank you, President Obama!!!
Yay...still winning! “Drill, Baby, Drill”, as a wise and beautiful woman once said.
