We sent over 5 million barrels of oil from strategic reserve to Europe and Asia last month

Un-fricking-Believable. Last I checked “Reserve” doesn’t mean shipping shite to Europe and Asia while Americans suffer. Just make a quick buck to the detriment of Americans. It’s hard to see that the destruction of our country isn’t intentional at this point.

HOUSTON, July 5 (Reuters) - More than 5 million barrels of oil that were part of a historic U.S. emergency oil reserves release aimed at lowering domestic fuel prices were exported to Europe and Asia last month, according to data and sources, even as U.S. gasoline and diesel prices touched record highs.
The export of crude and fuel is blunting the impact of the moves by U.S. President Joe Biden designed to lower record pump prices. Biden on Saturday renewed a call for gasoline suppliers to cut their prices, drawing criticism from Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. read more
About 1 million barrels per day is being released from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) through October. The flow is draining the SPR, which last month fell to the lowest since 1986. U.S. crude futures are above $105 per barrel and gasoline and diesel prices above $5 a gallon in one-fifth of the nation. U.S. officials have said oil prices could be higher if the SPR had not been tapped.

The Feds. We bought it, and don’t get to keep any of it.

Look Jack, here's the deal: you can have low gas prices and a full oil reserve for Americans, or you can have a country with a corrupt government free of Russian influence so our elites can continue to launder their money. You can't have both.

That's because you aren't a communist/Marxist.

At one point the OT cheered opening up crude oil exportation.

The Feds sold it off. To lower oil prices.

Which is it?
Biden has no impact on oil prices or he does.
Why are Democrats 100% of the time lying mentally ill fricks

So the feds are making a buck to the detriment of Americans?
That doesn't even make sense.
In a self-ruled nation such as ours, we are the fed.

I’m not sure this means what you think it means.

There's no way you're serious about this statement

Why are we sending even a gallon of our strategic reserve to anyone?
Posted on 7/5/22 at 2:37 pm to OMLandshark
Of course. The country is being ran by terrorists

Because the shale industry wanted to be a world player. Lobbied Obama to make it happen and he allowed it.
Then Shale and Saudi went to war and gave us low prices.
(There are many other factors at play in all of this as well)
You could maybe dictate where strategic reserves went, but it wouldn't really change anything. Traders would just shift oil from one hand to the other.
