Thus 4 dollars worth of silver quarters [90%] would buy 16 x 1.5= 24 gallons of gas wow.

“The U.S. consumes more than a fifth of the world’s oil. But we only have 2% of the world’s oil reserves.”

---

Isn’t this an apples and oranges comparison? What does one have to do with the other?

We could be consuming a fifth of the world’s annual oil production right now, however, only a small fraction of the world’s total oil reserves are pumped each year.

And these are the known reserves, I assume. If we get into more exploration, we may find that we have more reserves than we think.

Can anybody help me out? What am I missing? How is it significant that we consume a fifth of the world’s oil production while having only 2% of known oil reserves? How are these two factoids from the president connnected? What conclusion are we supposed to draw? That we all need windmills and ocean wave plants and solar panels, because oil production will never amount to anything for our energy needs???

there’s “a few places” we’re not drilling… the National Mall… at your house.”

Why drill where there's no oil.

What about the Gulf of Mexico?

I know. Its just that I cannot spend so much time every day thinking of new ways to describe the depths of my contempt for him. It has just been one steady torrent of information about who he is and what he is trying to do to this country every day since he emerged on the national scene: he is a lying, phony, arrogant, vicious, hateful, petulant, hypocritical, pandering, deceptive, craven, brazen, backstabbing bastard and HE IS DESTROYING MY BELOVED COUNTRY, DAMMIT! Yes, that’s how I really feel, but I could spend all day doing it and I have to try to make a living and be a husband, father, son, brother, uncle and friend.
