Guaranteeing A Gas Station A Windfall

Why not?
Do you mean it is dangerous to ship gasoline?

Because you can't make it if you don't have oil to refine.

 

[Big Bend Texas]

Nope. We don't own oil fields.

That's idiotic. The most plentiful and profitable oil fields we have are in the Arctic in Alaska and Offshore, both owned by the Federal Gov't.

When you don't know what you're talking about it's best to remain silent.

 

[Big Bend Texas]

no, I dismissed any issue as to who "owns" the tarsands. We "own" oil fields outside the continental US. It is immaterial as to whether investors make a profit on legally purchased assets.

If they don't make a profit you'll quickly find out what it's like to have real, pervasive, long term shortages of refined petroleum in the US including natural gas which powers 2/3's of the nation's electric generating plants.

 

[Big Bend Texas]

There's a global shortage in supply, moron. Keystone XL is good for the Chinese, not the US.

Factually false on it's face.

The Koch Brothers, not China owns most of the tar sands production in Canada.

More oil on the market benefits us all with lower prices.

As for overall petroleum in Canada where does China fall on this list?

This report for the Corporate Mapping Project looks at who owns and controls Canada's fossil-fuel sector, and therefore has an interest in the sector's continued growth.

Try following the thread. The government owns the land not the oil companies. You're very disappointing.

That's right.

Which is the opposite of what you claimed.

The gov't owns it and the gov't is restricting our access to it.

Drilling an oil well doesn't mean you own the land.

No shit Maynard which is why I made no such claim.

You can own production rights without any ownership in the land.

You seem lost.

That's what I have been saying all along. You have problems with women.

No, just with idiots that pretend to have expertise when clearly they don't.

How could it be about you being female when I had no clue you were?

Because you can't make it if you don't have oil to refine.

The Federal lands that produce oil in the USA only make up about 8%. The rest is private lands. THE biggest hold up on those locations (being drilled or scheduled for drilling ((Not producing)) are neighbors, municipalities, counties and state governments, and environmentalist taking the drilling and oil companies to court.

Not Joe Biden. Not BLM.

But none the less, there's over 9,000 drilling permits issued to drilling companies at the moment. Over 60% of them are not being used.

California is the largest consumer of gasoline in the US. It requires special blends to comply with its air quality standards, as well as "winter" and "summer" blends, which are not required in other states. As a result, it can't import out-of-state gasoline to meet fluctuating demand. That is one reason (along with taxes) why gasoline is so expensive in California.
