Subject: Re: US Oil Problems.
Pardon the top post;
The Alaskan Oil is being sold mainly to Japan.
The Texas Oil is mainly capped off due to regulations.
The California oil is blocked by the greens (environmentalists)
Oklahoma cannot supply the rest of the nation
There has been no new oil refineries built in the US in twenty years, therefore
we could not refine enough crude to supply the US even if there was plenty of
crude to go around.
Over half of the price you pay for fuel is taxes
Oh, and there is plenty of oil in Mexico who would like to sell to the US, but
the US has always refused to pay them market price. The same applies to their
natural gas, so they just burn that off.
Argentina has plenty of oil, but political turmoil has its production pretty
well turned off.
Lastly, if we solved all the above problems, then how would Bush % Co. take care
of their Saudi Buddies?
Most of us know that we need to get new dipsticks in DC.
There are a lot of folks who can't understand how we came to have an oil
shortage here in America. Well, there's a very simple answer......Nobody
bothered to check the oil! We just didn't know we were getting low. The
reason for that is purely geographical:
All our oil is in Alaska, Texas, California, and Oklahoma and All our
dipsticks are in Washington, DC.
