I don't even think we should have those reserves
Total waste of resources
We are an oil producer
Let's empty the reserves and let supply and demand determine prices as they should
Stock market doing great today
Woohoo


I disagree. The reserves are valuable in case of an unforseen circumstance. Basically it is an insurance policy.

Would you say a working person should not have savings because they will make more money each week?

Exactly. Oil import areas are prone to hurricanes. There was a HBO movie about it once. An oil crisis started by hurricanes wiping out lots of offshore production.

Those who say we need no reserve are the same ones who whined about no TP during the china virus. They do not understand prepping.

Well then you came to a different conclusion than Trump's "Donald Trump’s Presidential Advisory Committee on Election Integrity" which was quickly disbanded when nothing of interest was uncovered going back to the 1990s in every election in the country....


And?

A real survivalist doesn’t need TP.

And?


It means you are wrong, if a committee designed to find extensive fraud failed to find it, it is not there.

Trump lost because he is a bad candidate and one of the worst Presidents in history. Its as simple as that, not some grand conspiracy.

Nope, it means I am not some show committee. Trump is so far the greatest POTUS of the 2000s. I have yet to hear anyone give reasons for him being "worst" other than they do not like him. From getting us out of bad treaties to standing up to the loons who want to ban drilling and fracking. Times were great under him.

I disagree. I accidentally bought single ply toilet paper recently and am not sure I will survive until it is gone.

You know the FBI got some juicy evidence when Donny is already trying to set the stage for a “they planted it!” defense:



And I’m sure his braindead cult will lap it up, just as they did with the big lie.

If the AG really doesn't have anything significant in the MA Largo search, I expect he will resign. That's what I would do anyway.

They already do, the search was for classified documents which he admitted to having (and claimed he was in the process of returning, though should have never had there in the first place....). Anything else is just icing on the cake.
