but that’s what they asked for
They told trump that they need heavy crude because US refineries are setup to process heavy crude and not the light sweet stuff they get from domestic fracking

There already is a surplus of oil. Solar makes more money. Loose money for old school tech?

Gotta come up with some kinda made up reason to keep prices high/improve profit margins I guess
Ever since the “supply chain issues/labor shortages” excuses I feel like corps lean into making up background bs reasons so they can keep the status quo of gouging

I bet Cuba would be happy to help us out with that oil

“Struggling”? Or artificially dragging their feet to control supply and not lose any more money?

Blows me away that we blatantly took over a country and stole their oil. We’re usually much more sneaky about it.

Oil about to be $.50 in 6 months.

It’s stolen oil. In every sense of the word. The US oil industry is basically facilitating theft.
