Don't think for a minute that China and Russia aren't watching this 5hit show. The reserve is there for a reason. And using it to lower prices, instead of ramping up production, is the most assenine move ever. Elections have consequences. And we sure are paying the price.

Bigger picture, what do all the NATO alliances have in common?

They are all destroying thier own country by restricting consumables.

That's just for starters.

Thier starving the people in so many ways while living the highlife off of the people.

Oil is a NATURAL RESOURCE, they have the people believing that it's something els. There are reserves so massive and at the same time completely off limits.

For some reason the public does not put that together, because why ?

Don't get me wrong, everything has it's limits

Several years back a company tapped a massive reserve in Russia, I asked an engineer about it during the process and one of the questions was are you ****ing nutz. Long story short once production hit line so did this company's access to that drilling rig.

The writing is on the wall.

When it comes to the big guys they know .

Haven't you heard that Cummins has agreed to going green.

Diaper boy isn't the only one committing treason.

Correction: Oil is a LIMITED RESOURCE. The bottom of the barrel is in sight. Thus the push for alternate sources of energy.
He who has oil last, is the winner (performance jets, tanks..... wont work well on batteries) So the need to save oil reserves is a strategic plan for our longevity.

The us has enough oil to last us for the next 400 years….that’s a fact.

There's no new drilling, diaper boy has shut that down. Falling for how much there is or isn't is not the point and those in charge know it.

Remember when Shell sold the anticline state side? There wasn't a number that could even be written on paper. Employees were so shocked they thought thier jobs were done.

Correction, comment above was from for the Northern Anticline 30 years ago, this is from just a few years back.

Maybe they shouldn't have blocked the heavy oil pipeline from western Canada that was well underway. Dems turn their nose up at our oil then go begging the Saudis and other bad players to open the taps up.

Where did you get those stats? CNN?
Nope. Various sources including the USGS and the oil and gas industry all state similar numbers. And the viral Facebook and Twitter story that the us has “400 years of oil and that’s a fact” has been completely debunked. It’s horseshit, at current consumption levels that would be close to 3 trillion barrels. Not even close.

Look up your own sources, you’ll find similar information, even if it isn’t what you want to hear.

Can you provide a link from a reliable source to the 400 years of oil claim. I am interested. Thank you.

Why would I provide a link to that 400 years of oil in the us claim? It’s complete horseshit. There’s no reliable source that’s gonna back that one up. Maybe ask the guy that says “that’s a fact”….

Because being a douchbag comes naturally to you, that's why.

You are not helpful.

You spew your opinion and don't back it up, even with a CTV/Snopes/CNN/Pride for Ukraine/MSNBC/Reuters/Occupy Democrats link.

That's why you have no credibility.

Ok then, how many barrels of PROVEN oil reserves does the US have according to your totally unbiased unimpeachable sources? Based on current consumption rates how long would that last?

Here’s a hint-it’s nowhere near 400 years…
