Woodrow Wilson WWI, depression and pandemic
FDR.. WW2, depression, race wars, inflation, spending
LBJ... Race wars, viet Nam, rampant spending
Carter... World on fire, high oil, inflation
Obama.. Inflation, high oil, isis and world on fire.
Biden.. Inflation, high oil, world on fire

See a pattern here? Progressive Democrats

“”And Texas (over 5 million barrels of oil a day)””

That number is increasing daily, we’re starting to punch a lot of holes again.

What’s interesting is what I’m not seeing. With all the wells being drilled I still haven’t seen one vertical rig in operation, they’re all horizontals. They’re drilling two or more wells per location.
