He makes them out to be liars and fools...................

This is great news, but it must tempered with a dose of economic reality...

We still need to import more than 40% of the oil we use each day.

Moreover, what good does it do to export oil if it keeps the supply down and the prices up in the US?

Yes, the most important thing to happen to the US during the Obama Administration happened in spite of Obama’s best efforts. What a great President.

Maybe the U.S. should now be chairman of OPEC.

Re: “What good does it do to export oil if it keeps the supply down and the prices up in the US?”

Sorry, I disagree.

When the USA exports oil, it just means that the specific oil in a specific geographic location can be exported at a higher price (most likely to Europe) than it can be sold in the USA.

The oil we import - mostly from Mexico and western Canada - is cheaper than the oil we export, primarily because of transportation costs and proximity to local USA markets.

There are a lot more promising areas to drill and frack too. If our production keeps rising at 12-15% per year, we are going to be able to meet all of our own needs in just a few years.

So with this surge of shale products, why are our gas prices surging?
