Just for your information, there have been recent articles about how OPEC is about to lose the control they once had. I believe this is true.
And another thing that I’ve been reading over the last couple of years is that the USA will become the number one exporter (that’s the “USA” - not North America) of oil to the world - in the next decade - far outstripping Saudi Arabia. I believe I recently read that the USA has over four times the reserves of oil that Saudi Arabia does.
You would have to search that out for the details - but the general picture I’m talking about is coming down the pike.
Right - only if Obamalamadingdong will allow it. If he sees his Muslim friends hurting rest assured he'll do everything he can to prevent us from being self sufficient. I still can't fathom why Reagan didn't let it happen.
