President Trump filled up the strategic oil reserve at a low price for oil. Helps to take oil off the market and fill our reserves. Obarky sold off oil from our reserves to raise cash to pay for votes.
Shows who is loyal to our country and who is loyal to themself.
One rural legislator suggested balancing the budget.
He was promptly dragged out to the mesa and staked to an ant hill.
Talked to a friend in ABQ yesterday. Gun shop parking lots full, cars parking all down the street, people buying anything they can get no matter what it is as long as it’s a gun. Ammo flying off the shelves too.
Thanks.
Sounds totally crazy, but it has been 11 years since the Won was anointed. A half a generation is stepping up...
That’s true, a lot of young’uns turned adult since then.
I have a feeling there a good number of “never owned and never wanted to own a gun” buyers in this surge. The press has managed to really panic the sheeple.
In the short term that may mean a surge in armed idjits out there. In the long term it ought to mean some new fans of the 2nd A. and a bunch of guns on the market cheap from those who flake out on owning one.
No, I’ve never been in the oil business. But that’s how the business is and always will be.
Don’t complain about it being $20/barrel, if you aren’t going to complain when it’s $140/barrel.
Our dear NM govenor couldn’t find her a** with both
hands. A special session will only yield a more
progressive agenda. Ddemocrats are blue for a
reason. One can hold their breath for only so long.
Probably, but I haven’t been in town for a bit.
We need to put on a floating tariff on crude oil IMPORTS keep the price at a stable $50/bbl. This will keep the domestic producers, producing. It will also raise a huge amount of federal revenue to assuage the deficit hawks.
No gas tax!!1 We need a tariff on OIL IMPORTS.
The rest of the world doesn’t use our oil. It would simply drive the price lower.
My God you are so stupid. A tariff on oil imports ( we import 6 million bbls/day ) will keep the domestic price at $50/bbls. This will keep domestic oil production in the black and profitable. You do not understand macro economics. What a pity..
Who would complain about $140 oil? That means the economy is vibrant and people and factories are fully employed.
Shouldn't be a problem for anyone except the oil producers.
And as their product will stay in the ground it will become more valuable when the middle east goes dry.
