We are a net exporter, and should we decide to keep it, our prices would go WAY down


It always confuses me when people say stuff like this.

The companies that are exporting the fuel are ostensibly private companies.

You really want the government to force private companies to only sell fuel inside the United States?

Literally make it illegal to sell it anywhere but here?

It’s a commodity sold on the open market, who buys it and gets it could use restrictions though

America First means making American companies rich, not actually doing what’s best for American citizens.

Huge win for you
How would this possibly be a “win” for me (or anyone)? Do think anyone wants higher diesel prices—which are a leading COGS for almost all goods?

Cope harder.

Yet another clueless dumbass who can't see his own dick due to his oversized gut.

so you are coping by making up a story in your head about my physique? That is some serious cope.

Thst said, I’m not sure how posting factual data makes me a clueless dumbass. But I do hope it makes you feel better.

With no ability to form a rational argument, lashing out is the result.

He’s just playing games anyway. More interested in ad hominem attacks than a coherent political discourse.

Depends on what outcome you want. If you want to get prices down due to the circumstances, then yes. Its not like we have not done this through out our 250 years.

Once the circumstances are over, back to normal.

We are not talking donuts, we are talking about a good that is a national security issue. Donuts will never be that. Oil is.

I dont think anybody has suggested that.


Not sure if this has been mentioned, but the other side of that coin is the cost going up from things shipped here from over seas.


The best way to handle this is to continue to restructure the routes and who we deal with until its all a mute point.

Free market is the reason the USA is in the shitter.

It was a transmission belt for the CCP and marxists to bring down the USA.

You posted no such data. You gave an old antiquated response that does not apply to the current world and goals
