    What more do they want?

    It doesn't cost all that much money to test drill and they have geologists with sophisticated ground penetrating sonar to give them a good idea of which sites are promising.

    The reason they aren't drilling is because they don't want to increase supply and drive the price down.

    You rwnj's are just stooges.
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    A reality check from earlier this year:

    Fact-checking Biden’s claim that there are 9,000 unused oil drilling permits


    "In the United States, 90% of onshore oil production takes place on land that isn’t owned by the federal government. And of the remaining 10% that occurs on federal land, the oil and gas industry has millions of acres leased," Biden said. "They have 9,000 permits to drill now. They could be drilling right now, yesterday, last week, last year. They have 9,000 to drill onshore that are already approved."

    Biden said that the companies are not using these permits to drill. "These are the facts. We should be honest about the facts."

    After the White House claimed that U.S. oil producers have "plenty of opportunities" to drill domestically, some executives are slamming the administration’s "completely inaccurate," "flat-out lie."

    "We've basically tracked about 125 specific actions that this administration and the Democratic Congress have done to slow down or stop oil production in America," American Energy Alliance President Tom Pyle said on "Varney & Co." Tuesday. "He has an 'America last' energy policy."

    When asked by Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy why President Biden "would rather let U.S. companies drill for oil in Venezuela than here in the U.S." Monday, NSC Strategic Communication Coordinator John Kirby defended easing oil sanctions against Venezuela, saying that there are plenty of untapped opportunities for companies to drill in the United States.

    On Saturday, the Treasury Department announced its decision to allow California-based Chevron to resume "limited" energy production in Venezuela after years of sanctions that have dramatically curtailed oil and gas profits that have flowed to Maduro’s government.

    Kirby told Doocy that his framing of the question was "not an accurate take on the president’s view," to which Doocy retorted that the president himself, earlier this month, said, "there is no more drilling."

    =================================


    America's energy policy is being run by morons or America haters or both. It makes no sense to go to Venezuela when Canada could be shipping 1 million more barrels a day to the US. Why send money to a country that hates us.


    ...................
    “Oil Execs” turns out to be one Thomas Pyle, former employee of the Koch brothers, who now heads the mentioned “American Energy Alliance” which is funded by the Kochs, and he offers his opinion on a Fox talking heads show

    translation: Moosie is just another MAGA blowhard trying to bluff his way out of making a statement he can't back up.

    Put up or shut up, Moosie. Anything less will be ignored.

    Since you're incapable of having a conversation without being a dick I'll explain in APP.
