Even less than. I thought I was being overly generous in my guesstimate. I looked but there was such a wide difference that I had to question why the internet had so many different figures that I questioned it they understood what I was trying to determine.

Thanks for your input. 🤙

He is buying votes with our national resources and handicapping the northeast if a hurricane hits this summer.

The figure I’m seeing is approximately 18 million. So 1 million barrels would meet our demands for a little over an hour.

BTW, I got that figure from this 2021 Breitbart article.

The lower figure is for gasoline only.

Thanks.

That man knows nothing about just doing what is right. He is a rat who wants what he wants., and bares his teeth to anyone he deems deserving a hit.

Biden releasing 1 million barrels

Yeah - that'll make a dent!!

In 2022, the United States consumed an average of about 20.01 million barrels of petroleum per day...

[Elsie]

Would a million barrels have a significant effect on prices?

Well, since it makes damn near NOTHING on VOLUME...

[Elsie]

I shudda read ahead...

Yes. We’re going to see a lot of manipulation by Biden and his puppeteers with election day looming.

“Blatantly using government resources for election purposes.

“It ain’t gonna work.”

It’ll definitely work when it comes to low-information voters.
