We are shipping it to China and India for their industrial needs.

And the whole OPEC thing, people say “boycott them”, other countries (including Europe, China, and India) are going to buy them anyway.

I say eradicate the Islamonazis in the Middle East and then we don’t have to worry about fuel dollars funding international terrorism.

Some yes. And other locations. Those locations are going to purchase on the open market. Why do you want them to buy from someone else?

Absolutely. Oil, NGLs, propylene, other petrochemicals are fungible. Shutting down our exports just pushes those jobs to other countries to supply.

A different topic, but do imagine we would ever go to war to the complete removal of those populations?

Fungibility

A rising tide...

Like it or not we are all in the same marketplace.
