The world needs oil Somehow Allah ended up with it while God gave Moses a Mediterranean resort
The Saudis are the preferred model in an imperfect world

We could also pump a shit ton of our own oil and leave Europe to police the Middle East, if they want to do so.

That doesn't square with the MIC quarterly reporting.
-
Europe has always been far more reliant on the mid east. A fact that continually escapes American communists
The USA could sell it too

$1.80 fuel is coming! Energy independent America is going to be kicking ass and giving zero fucks about foreign nations. Time to make our country great and let others foot the bills for 75 years!

Mall Cop looks forward to the day America's stance is irrelevant to the rest of the world.
Enjoy isolationism, ladies.

We'll be cutting off aid to Israel too, right?

Big problem is the regulatory constraint on refining oil into gasoline in the US. Refining is incredibly expensive and you are looking at years of permitting let alone actual construction to build anything in the US. Then you need at least a 20 year production horizon to get the thing to cash flow. All you need is to look at the Keystone XL pipeline. Billions in development costs and then on day one of the dementia patient's reign of terror the pipeline is cancelled. You get a democratic Congress or god forbid a dem president and voila, your new shiny gas refinery is worthless. Older refineries are grandfathered and don't have to meet new air and water EPA requirements. So, old refineries are just fine tuned or subject to limited expansion opportunities. There is a reason that the last new major US gas refinery was built in 1977 almost half a century ago.

I don't recall ever endorsing aid to Israel.
And that's not spoken in a dumbass @MelloDawg tone. I truly haven't endorsed aid to Israel.
