Who’d-a-thunk-it? Russia controls global energy! In 2019 the United States was energy independent.

Even if the US were energy independent it would still be subject to global prices. One would have to ban US petroleum and refined products exports to disassociate the US from global prices. This was the case btw back in the 1970s.

When you lay off that many people in a strategic manufacturing area, you need to depend upon government support to stay afloat and you don't want to piss off the White House. So you play the game and go along to get along. This is how Fascism comes to America
