Though I agree it’snot a bad idea, fact is that their problems don’t really impact the US as much as it used to. It may affect the world’s oil prices, but I believe we in the US can get along just fine without them now. I could be wrong, but I believe we are actually a net EXPORTER of petroleum.
Oil futures were down over the weekend. Thought that was odd. All markets are manipulated.
If only we had gone with Henry Fords first prototype. It ran off of and was made mostly of HEMP.
But then the slimes would never have been given enough money to fund satanallahs favorite pastimes, murder and enslavement.
We export CRUDE. We still have refinery limitations in this country and have to re-import that crude after it is refined. We are not fully self-sufficient and likely will never quite get there. But if Canada and Mexico are the buffer that is fine. But I still think we take about 1 million barrels a say from Saudis.
An interesting thing will be to see how the daily Tanker Rates react tomorrow.
I wonder if Kerry and the other democrats advising the Iranians are the John Boltons of Rouhani’s government? Along with crashing the US economy, the dems have no problem watching the Middle East set ablaze. For democrats nothing is too radical as long as it makes problems for Trump.

Read Saudi will be up and running Monday morning.
That’s what I read. Saudi Arabia said production will return to normal levels by Monday.
Yeah, but ANY excuse to raise oil prices will work, valid or not.
We still have to import to meet our daily needs, we haven’t quite got there yet.
In a rational world, the media would be praising President Trump for working towards energy independence for our country. Seems like he knew what he was doing, doesn’t it?
11% of our oil comes from Saudi Arabia.
I needed to fill up anyway. $2.12, which is cheaper than Sam’s according to Gas Buddy.
If we were under President Hillary, we would be hearing more about how we are part of a global market, and higher gas prices are something we must all get used to, and how Americans must learn to live more like the other peoples of the world live.
It’s a dumb assertion. That an attack on a Saudi oil refinery, producing finished products for Saudi delivery, will cause a cut in Saudi crude oil production and export. Two separate consumer markets.
Higher prices. I’ll just pay it.
I never knew that. How much hemp is needed to be grown to support the number of cars on the road we have today? Was it something in line with ethanol or more like plant based diesel?
