When did we stop?

US achieves energy independence for first time in 40 years

America is now a net exporter of fossil fuels at a time when global conflicts have led to increased prices.

The only reason we can claim energy independence they count the LNG we export. We are still oil dependent because we don't burn LNG in our cars and trucks.

The US could be entirely energy independent.

We have the largest oil reserves in the world

Most US wells produce less than 50 barrels a day.

Most US wells produce less than 50 barrels a day.

But we have nearly a million producing wells.

Average gas prices were lower during Reagan, Bush 2, and Trump vs Clinton, Obama, and Biden. Then again, you hate Republicans so much you don’t mind spending $3.50 for gas and twice as much for a loaf of bread under Biden vs. Trump.

Gfy and deal in reality. Facts are facts, the US has the largest reserves in the world.

You're fckn annoying and don't know shit about oil

So, tell me how the President sets the price of gas. Tell me the specific policies by Pres. Biden that has caused high inflation and show me how those policies caused it.

President’s policies influence the price of gas. Biden and Democrats have restricted drilling, killed infrastructure projects, and reduced leasing on Federal lands.

Which policies?

 

[LeftofLeft]

Which policies?

I just listed them. They are his policies, policies that he signed as executive orders the day took office, policies that he and Democrats pursued through EPA Mandates.

Go look at Biden’s executive orders and you will see the breakout and details.

Facts are facts, the US has the largest reserves in the world.

That is only a fact if the yet to be discovered fields hold as much oil as assumed.

In actual proven fields we are below Russia, Saudi Arabia and Iran.

When you add in proven plus probable we are behind those as well as Canada and Iraq.

We only have the largest reserves when you add in "yet undiscovered" fields.

U.S. Holds Most Recoverable Oil Reserves

Thanks to unconventional resources, the United States is ahead of both Russia and Saudi Arabia in Rystad Energy’s latest estimate of global oil reserves.

And that does not take into account the cost of recovering the oil if those fields are discovered.

In most all of the past 100 years we have been oil dependent.

U.S. Net Imports of Crude Oil (Thousand Barrels per Day)

Not true. We import oil in order to encourage economic stability in other regions of the world. We don’t import oil out of need. Then of course the environmental extremists want us to stop producing our own oil.

 

[tahuyaman]

Which policies?

His energy policies, dumb-ass.

It is true. Demand spiked in the 70's and the US oil patch couldn't keep up with demands. Oil companies were fine with importing and refining cheap Arab oil to make gasoline to sell us for our obsession with our vehicles.

He didn't have any, dumbass. Why didn't you post any of them?

Biden has no energy policies? Are you really that stupid?

We could have kept up. We refused to keep up. The president caved in to the environmental extremists.

The lure of that dirt cheap oil from the ME was too strong. I like clean air and clean water. No reason to let the polluters contaminate the Commons if you ask me. Nothing extreme about that. ELF is extreme. Nobody is caving into them.

 

[bendog]

I wonder what would happen if we passed a law telling oil producers they could only sell oil that was "pumped" from the US in the US?

Why haven't we done this before? (trick question, btw)

You're stupid enough to believe Trump had some.
