“Does that sound better to you?”
Your premise is still flawed. It’s like saying AFC quarterbacks threw more touchdowns this year than Drew Brees did..?
Non OPEC nations produce more oil than OPEC nations do.
Use the same reasoning you applied to my statements. There are 106 Non-OPEC oil producing nations, OPEC has 12.
But in spite of all that, nearly half (47% of the last 6 months) of our crude oil imports, comes from OPEC member nations.
We are far too dependent upon nations that are not our allies for our vital energy source.
