The US still buys 700,000 barrels of fossil fuel per day from PUTIN….WHY?

[ColonelAngus]

We are FUNDING the war against Ukraine. The US should stop purchasing FF from Russia NOW.

Gee, we were energy independent and could have easily increased production to make up for what we buy from Russia.

The world is not serious about stopping Poot until they stop buying his FF…about 10% pf the world’s supply.

 

[ColonelAngus]

At $100 per barrel…..700,000 bpd….$70 million per day in revenue for Russia from the US.

That is nearly $3 billion in revenue per year.

Just the US…now if the entire planet embargoed Russian fossil fuel, it would crush Russia.

The problem is it would also crush Europe, they are far more dependent on Russian supplies, particularly Natural Gas.

Thank a Green for enabling this situation.

Well we can at least start here.

France has nuclear plants.

European lefties are fucking jackasses.

Here we can, unless they want a cold early spring, they cannot.

The US would have to figure out a way to get LNG tankers to Europe to make up the difference.

His transportation secretary also said buying oil from Iran is on the table. Not kidding.

Buttigieg slammed for saying 'all options are on the table' when asked about buying oil from Iran

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said Wednesday that "all options are on the table" during a discussion about oil prices after MSNBC's Stephanie Ruhle asked if President Biden would consider "working something out with Iran."

Strategic of course.

Not relying on the exports from a country we know is suspect is a longer game.

Strategically speaking, the US is a very bad position. How much shit does China make for us? Pharma, too.

If shit goes sideways, we are not self sustainable. That is a poor strategy.

We were never energy independent since we as a nation have no national petroleum industry.

How much profit is Big Oil raking in by doing business with Putin & his band of racketeers?

They cut U.S. production by 10% & it will take months to ramp back up if they even bother to.

It makes perfect sense to a capitalist.

Most of what China makes for us is cheap crap, but there are some items of note. Pharma is one, also strategic minerals.

China's one weakness is a lack of oil resources, they are dependent on middle east oil that has to travel via ocean, and the US still controls the oceans.

Isnt it incredible how cheaply made this shit is we get from China?

I bought a portable AC unit and a printer that both broke under warranty, the manufacturers just told me to throw them out and they sent me new ones.

Hisense AC, Brother printer.

They are disposable products.

These are just examples. So much of the shit China sends us is now in landfills. The left dont seem to care about that pollution.…or the garbage created by hundreds of billions of disposed face diapers.

Why?

I'd say it's one of two reasons.

1 Biden was so desperate to get applause he shut down domestic oil production and pushed electric cars so he could look like a hero and instead bought it on the side. Like a fat person always talking about how they are eating healthy so people cheer for them, but instead they started having doordash bring their big Macs to the back door so the neighbors don't see.

2 he and his friends are making a lot of money through deals.

Yet, oddly enough while people were making this false claim we were increasing our oil imports from Russia.

Right , Europe and the US need to be upfront and tell Ukraine they're going to loss the war because we're not going to give up Russian energy. The longer they give Ukraine hope the more people are going to die.

Any idea who is actually buying the petroleum? You're saying "the US is buying it...." surely its a company that is buying it....any idea who that company is?

I am still waiting on some sort of evidence the 700,000 number is not just something he make up so he could start a thread.
