Once again, it is my understanding that we can only use 2% of what we have. Not that we only have 2% of the worlds oil. They are playing with numbers here while our people suffer and we support the Middle East, which hates us.

Let me add one thing here. If we produced our own oil for our own use, and not export it, that would leave more of the Middle East oil for the rest of the world. Prices for oil would drop.

Maybe we’re drinking their milkshake while the oil in our ground gets more valuable.
