Carter enable OPEC to become way too powerful.

Now they are funding global expansion.

“Defund them- stop buying their oil.”

The percentage of OPEC oil purchased by the United States has been dropping steadily for about thirty years. Apparently, it was rarely over twenty percent. Since fracking has been getting cheaper, the US has become a net exporter when we include the oil we refine from Canada. The US is also, due to fracking, the leader in cheap natural gas production.

The biggest buyer of OPEC oil is China. Essentially, our Navy is keeping the Chinese economy fueled. You’d thing they’d be a bit more polite.
