Saudi Arabia's Minister of State: It's Biden's Fault US Gas Prices Are High, Because President Hasn't Increased Domestic Oil Production

[jc456]

You ma be an idiot.

but we know you are. thanks for standing up and being noticed.

but we know you are. thanks for standing up and being noticed.

Are you a teenager?

 

[notmyfault2020]

That's so incredibly stupid. You don't even know what a communist is. And, you don't know anything about the US oil business either.

That's so incredibly stupid, You don't even know what TRUTH and reality are

 

[notmyfault2020]

You may be an idiot. The US hasn't been oil independent since the 1940s.

Fake news.

We were oil independent under Trump, for the first time since.. I believe it was the 80s under Reagan. We certainly are not independent NOW, thanks to the retards in charge

 

[notmyfault2020]

Are you a teenager?

do u worship Alinsky?

dumbass

 

[BlindBoo]

yeah 4.50 here in Chicago area. I'm still confused why you think if OPEC drops production, but the US increases production to replace the barrels OPEC cut, the price wouldn't come down. So it can only go down if OPEC increases production? hahahahhahahhaaha you think americans are stupid. Well, that's just demofk americans.

Because "OPEC member countries produce about 40 percent of the world's crude oil. Equally important to global prices, OPEC's oil exports represent about 60 percent of the total petroleum traded internationally." and we are the worlds top producer now and still have to import 6 to 7 mbd.

Not at all. I was a Republican for decades until Bush invaded Iraq. I know the Middle East and the oil business so I knew it would be an unmitigated disaster.

 

[BlindBoo]

We were oil independent under Trump, for the first time since.....

Contrary to known reality. We are still energy independent under Biden because of NG production and exportation.

 

[Lesh]

yep, indeed we do, all he has to do is increase oil production here. He can have our gas sold to the US only. Why is it you believe differently?

So you want the President to control the oil companies?

That would be what...socialism?

Newsflash though...the US is producing more il now than any time during the Trump Admin and next year is predicted to set all time records

you've been lied to

We are NOT energy independent. We were under Trump and then the first thing Mr Senile in Chief did after usurping the WH was stop the Keystone and other pipelines.

Get some real news

damn lie

CNN lies to you and you believe it.. Oh, now you're going to s ay you don't watch CNN

MSNBC? same thing

you imbibe lies like a sponge absorbs water

what?

u were a R for decades and then decided you didn't want to get rid of Roe?

guess u like being on the wrong side of history

Get some real news

The Neo-GOP flock is as dumb as a box of rocks. We export more NG than any other country which is what has made us energy independent since 2019. 2022 has been another year of increase for USNG producers.

You know pipelines don't produce oil, right?

 

[toobfreak]

It should be abundantly clear to you by now that we can't drill our way off the Saudi oil teat. They have us by the balls and there is nothing that can be done about it other than decreasing the demand.

CONGRATULATIONS: You have just posted the stupidest comment I've ever seen on this board that I would have thought any waking person was far too intelligent to believe. First you shovel this bull that OPEC adjusts output to compensate for US production increases when there HASN'T been any increases in our production! JUST THE OPPOSITE! Yet prices are still soaring.

Then you claim we are stuck to the Saudi teat when just two years ago and before Biden, we had a SURPLUS of oil and were exporting the excess! Worse, like a granite-headed moron, you then claim the only way we can get prices down is by reducing demand! Hey idiot: demand is tied to human activity and you can't cut demand without sending millions back to the Stone Age. Your other option is to develop practical alternatives to oil but those are still decades away from being able to fill all our energy needs!

But if you are so sure, what is stopping you from cancelling your electric account and cutting all the wires to your house?

"In 2021, the United States exported about 8.63 million barrels per day (b/d) and imported about 8.47 million b/d of petroleum,1 making the United States an annual total petroleum net exporter for the second year in a row since at least 1949. Total petroleum net exports were about 0.16 million b/d in 2021, and total petroleum net exports in 2020 were 0.63 million b/d. Also in 2021, the United States produced2 about 18.66 million b/d of petroleum and consumed3 about 19.78 million b/d. Even though U.S. annual total petroleum exports were greater than total petroleum imports in 2020 and 2021, the United States still imported some crude oil and petroleum products from other countries to help to supply domestic demand for petroleum and to supply international markets.

The United States remained a net crude oil importer in 2021, importing about 6.11 million b/d of crude oil and exporting about 2.90 million b/d."

once I bust someone here for fake news/lying/deception

I don't read a lot of what they say

guess I am funny that way.. guess I am odd for appreciating truth as opposed to falsehood.

 

[BlindBoo]

the US is producing more il now than any time during the Trump Admi

They hit a peak of nearly 13mbd before the pandemic, after the pandemic they've only managed to get back 12.1. Also, it took a year to go from 12 to 13 mbd

Weekly U.S. Field Production of Crude Oil (Thousand Barrels per Day)

Of course you made a false accusation about my source and like all Neo-GOPer's you can't accept the fact that you are wrong. Furthermore, you never provided any source for your imaginative but false claim.

But please hide behind you false claim. It's all you have, really.

We buy very little oil from OPEC or Saudi Arabia... Very little. They have obligations to other countries.

 

[surada]

I don't trust anyone in Saudi government to tell us what is good for America. They are not our friends.

You don't know anyone in the Saudi government or the history of Aramco. This is strictly political. Biden is under the gun for inflation which isn't his fault either, but he's nonetheless deflecting blame to the Saudis
