Once Again, at this point it probably takes years to get the necessary permits and construction completed and get the facilities online and running.

I’m not even sure what your point is here, you keep moving the goalposts. There is no infrastructure or equipment or facilities or capability to do the things you mention. Not in the next 60 or 90 days.

I’m not “defeatist”, I’m just pointing out the reality. Frankly, I don’t think “we” should he selling them any natural gas anyway.

Sometimes people learn from their mistakes, sometimes they don’t, but they need to fully experience the consequences of their choices for it to really take hold.

Our exports were minimal until 2016 when an America First attitude arrived. Since then exports of LNG from the USA have grown continually, except for the COVID induced dip in 2020. Selling more LNG is a great way to move money from around the world into the checking accounts of Americans.

"The United States became the world’s largest liquefied natural gas (LNG) exporter during the first half of 2022, according to data from CEDIGAZ. Compared with the second half of 2021, U.S. LNG exports increased by 12% in the first half of 2022, averaging 11.2 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d). U.S. LNG exports continued to grow for three reasons—increased LNG export capacity, increased international natural gas and LNG prices, and increased global demand, particularly in Europe."

That sounds like winning to me, apparently you don't like that kind of thing.

Our government should be helping our LNG industry to expand instead of what they are doing.
