@RealHickory Because we can’t refine the oil that we pump here in America and we can’t build new refineries that can due to environmental regulations. No one is willing to take on that risk.
@MarioNawfal Shutting off the pumps long term could cause serious irreversible damage to the pumps. Not only would Iran’s GDP be tremendously down, their main way to make money could be severely damaged leading to months of repairs and a ton of money. Hold strong a little longer!
@doctormalibu@MarioNawfal Yeah and if they shut off the pumps for an extended period of time, serious damage to the pumps will occur. Not only will their GDP be massively down, their main way of making money could be severely damaged causing months of maintenance and a ton of money to repair
@Bigfan4Usa@Hedgeye It’s saying we made investments in heavy crude oil not sweet crude oil (which is what we pump) because light sweet crude oil was declining at the time. Heavier crude oil was more popular so we made our refineries able to process that oil. It backs up my claim
@Bigfan4Usa@Hedgeye You are missing my point. I’m not saying we are at a disadvantage. I was saying that most of the oil we pump here we can’t refine bc our refineries literally can’t do it. People are upset to see we are exporting so much oil but don’t realize that we physically can’t use that oil
@Bigfan4Usa@Hedgeye Yes the US refines oil but most of it is the heavy sour oil from other countries not the sweet crude oil that the USA pumps. That’s why it’s exported so heavily
@BeTheChain@Hedgeye No because our current refineries can’t refine the oil we pump. Why don’t we make refineries that can then? Because of all the environmental regulations. It would take 10 years to make a new one and no one is willing to take on that risk.
@IceIceBrand0n@Hedgeye@Roughneck4795 Not Trump’s fault. USA produces light sweet crude oil. Our refineries can’t refine that oil so we sell it. And we haven’t built any new refineries since like the 1970s because of all the environmental regulations. It would take years to build a new one.
Here are my favorite Canadien copes on my timeline
1. Canada proved they were better team
2. Us Goalie saved us
3. Refs didn’t call too many men on ice
4. Us hasn’t won since 1980
5. Connor Bedard shoulda been on the team
6. 3 on 3 in OT is stupid
7. American is a bully
8. Tate McRae is a traitor
Am I missing anything?
