I was surprised that the Biden administration had the nerve to sell our reserves so I googled to find out how much and how quickly we were depleting it.

In 2009 we were at the maximum it would hold...727 million barrels.

Here is the data for 2022 to date...what has added to my concern is that with each month we are withdrawing a significantly higher quantity than the month before. Last month alone was 30 million additional barrels. If these increases continue it will be gone in less than a year.
