US Oil Producers Fail to Produce

You do also realize that since we are no longer importing those "refined products" from Russia that we now have to find other sources for those "refined products" or just simply go without those products. You do realize that last option is impossible right?

Maybe I should take you off ignore. Laughing at you is one of the best things about the PC these days.

Take a gander at how much refined products we export dude and you'll realize why the imports of refined distillates is meaninglessly. There is no shortage of oil currently being produced in the world, there is no shortage in the United States. Even if there was, the coordinated release of oil from the SPR was negotiated to offset. But speculators have ran up oil 80% in the past few months, all due to greed.

Orrrrrrr, you know, we could quit spending more money on welfare and entitlement programs that we take in via income tax and that would fix the deficit even faster with far less economic harm.

You're right, even though 72,608 is the number in thousands and 72,608,000 is literally in the same sentence of my post, it should be explained to the thick individuals who neither look at charts, nor read whole sentences. Good call.

It was about a month after Trump left office that gas jumped 25 cents in my area. It wasn't a gradual increase, it was just a 25 cent jump.

I think it had to do with the fact that Biden halted the pipeline from Canada to Nebraska and was working on reducing/stopping fracking and other such things with the oil industry in the States just after he got in office. Ever since then gas has been slowly moving up more and more.

I enjoyed the $1.80-$1.90 gas price the last few years Trump was in office.

Tell us you know nothing about oil pricing without telling us you know nothing about oil pricing.

That is the KEystone Pipeline. That green part is the Keystone XL. That is the only part that was canceled. Nebraska still gets gas.

The average taxpayer pays less than 4 dollars a month for Americas welfare programs.

In 2012, the average American taxpayer making $50,000 per year paid just $36 towards the food stamps program and about $6 per year for the rest of the social safety net programs. Republicans say this is too much — cut it!

Corporate welfare, however, costs the average American family a staggering $6,000 a year in subsidies

Yes, 72,608,000 divided by 365 is less than 200,000 you dumb cuck. 30,000,000 divided by 198,926 barrels per day is FIVE MONTHS of supply of crude oil..

Please, get better at reading and arithmetic Dreaven, your posts are embarrassing.

Know how I know that everything in this post is wrong? Because everything you post is wrong and retarded with no exceptions.

Good thing I didn't just say welfare. Reading comprehension fail.

I put it all into entitlement spending which is wealth redistribution plain and simple.

Despite increased military spending and so on, about 3/5ths of all the Federal budget it spent on welfare and entitlement programs.

https://www.nationalpriorities.org/b...-101/spending/

And according to this break down, https://www.nationalpriorities.org/b...-101/spending/

About 49% of Federal income is from income taxes. So, 3/5ths of the budget is about 60% and income tax makes up about 49% my statement is true.
