In fact, he's "selling" our oil on the world market. It's income for the coffers...

30 million barrels x $90 a barrel is what....2.7 billion??

About the same amount as the down payment we gave to Brazil

Well, yeah he’s got to convert it to money to throw it away.

The House, temporarily, isn’t giving him money to throw away so he bypasses them.

Will keep our creditor’s oil prices down a little. Hopefully they won’t make him sell too much more of our treasure to keep the loans coming. Maybe just some museum pieces and land. Hope they let him continue to rent the military like he’s doing in Libya and don’t make him sell it outright.
