Quit exporting and keep it home and we would be truly energy independent. Then stop importing.

My statement was not based on math, but on desire and necessity.

So to become energy independent, we stop exporting the surplus refined products that we don't use, wait for the magic to happen, then stop importing?

If we have a surplus why are we importing? It is not that hard. Use what we have first then buy what we need. Not buy first. Damn economics, I am tired of feeding muzzies missile money.
