*SNORT* <—— Laz!

So, Saudi has to drill less wells because they’re, um, sitting on an ocean of oil that’s easy to get at? Their ‘government’ doesn’t stop them at every turn? They’re actually SMART enough to use the Natural Resources that GOD gave them in the FIRST place, unencumbered by EnviroWeenies?

Wow. Well, I guess that ‘splains it, Lucy! I never would’ve guessed that in a million years.

*Rolleyes* <—— Is this REALLY necessary?

No the answer is —lousy as it may be — is that dependence on oil the world over has to be killed. And it will be killed.

” use the Natural Resources that GOD gave them” I’m sure you meant ‘mooo-ham-head gave them’. Right? :>}

Pretty impressive. I imagine many of their wells might flow without pumping (?), but don’t forget they don’t have EPA either.

Nope. God. It’s not His fault they believe in a false prophet. Free Will and all that rot. :)

I’d drill it until precious liquids erupted high into the sky.

Their wells are already drilled. No capital investment required. It’s no mystery. Their oil is almost 100% profit.

Good luck finding a substitute feedstock for plastics, polymers and advanced fiber manufacture along with a fuel source with decent energy density...

If the world “ran out” of oil, we would be making it from the base constituents and garbage...

When you’re drilling wells and looking for oil, people are working.

The Saudis have a small population. We don’t.
