Well THANK YOU for validating my comment! So when supply is less than demand....what happens ?
Prices go up! When 24% of the productive oil comes from Federal lands that planners can't count on in the future...
what did they do? RAISE their prices, which caused refineries to "RAISE" their prices, which caused gas stations to do what ???? RAISE THEIR PRICES to consumers!
Everything you wrote supports that supply vs demand!
World wide oil supply went down because producing wells were shut down due to lack of demand and
Trump negotiating production cuts from OPEC and US oil producers, not because of the pause on new leases on federal land. When demand came roaring back the producing nations were not able to increase production as fast as they shut it off because they have to re-drill most of the wells, not because of Biden's pause on new lease sales on federal lands.
