Why, after 9/11, didn’t we invest in fuel right here at home....?

Because the technology had not been invented yet. Shale oil had been known by the industry, and I remember discussions as early as 1984. Those discussions usually ended with, “Yes, but how do we get it out?”.

Thank you so much for your well-reasoned response. That really makes a lot of sense.
