I was watching Biden's speech on the Pipeline "hack" and remembered that POTUS had filled up the Strategic Petroleum Reserve last year in April (or at least announced they were starting to because of what was going on with the price of oil). He mentioned it would have 75 Million barrels when they were done.
Forgive me if I'm showing my ignorance as a CanadianAnon, but based on my reading, those reserves are to be used for "emergency situations" (ie. supply chains from the middle east, anything domestically or.......a "hack"?). Yet here those people are since May 7 with this rough situation, people are fighting eachother, I've seen the bags of gas in cars. While they had to wait for the "ransom" to be paid and now are waiting even longer because they are hearing that:
"it will take a while for things to go back to normal since it's a super-duper long pipe and...well I'm really just setting up more groundwork to continue amplifying all the reasons we are trying to persuade the sheep to get rid of oil after we just became energy independent with Trump and the world was in a more peaceful state geopolitically than in the last 120 years."
Am I wrong on this? Is this not the reason why the oil reserves are there? Did I just not find or hear that they were used up at some point in the last year?
I'm open to any explanation of course but WTF???
I believe the reserves are still stored around Houston.....the issue was the pipeline could not move the oil, so the reserves really didn’t have anything to do with it.
HOWEVER, feckless Biden could have sent tanker trucks to start shipping the oil immediately.
