Except for a brief respite in the early 1980s (when Ronald Reagan decontrolled oil prices) oil imports steadily increased.
A Radical Change

Then President Donald Trump took office and announced a radical departure from 50 years of received energy "wisdom." In a speech to the Energy Department months after taking office, he said that for decades leaders peddled the myth of energy scarcity. Most of it is self-imposed, he said. What the country needs, he said, isn't "alternative" energy, or new austerity measures. It's a government that "promotes energy development." Trump listed actions he was taking to lift federal impediments to energy production.

Lo and behold, Trump was right.

Advanced drilling technologies have opened vast expanses of domestic oil and natural gas. And as domestic production skyrocketed, imports have been steadily dropping.

Trump doesn't deserve the credit for this boom. Oil companies do. But unlike his predecessors, Trump understands that energy independence doesn't require yet another "energy plan" that tells people to wear more sweaters in the winter and wastes money on "new" energy sources.

It just requires government to get out of the way so that oil companies can get at the vast supplies of good old oil and gas right under U.S. soil.

Climate change policies are in full speed ahead mode.  The pandemic really derailed that scam, so they have really been pushing it.  Climate change cultists will never admit that the pandemic actually imitated CUTTING emissions way more than anything climate change policies actually propose.

OPEC+ countries love it when other countries stop oil production in the name of climate change.

Compare NATO members to OPEC + members. 

Wow, now compare the OPEC + members that are part of the Paris Accord.

Well the US is pumping an absolute shit ton of oil. As much as we did at nearly any time in trumps term aside from a few month streak of record production.

It's the only NATO country that could even remotely effect what OPEC + can. 

That is why I mentioned NATO members vs OPEC+ members and the priorities of these countries.  Every NATO member except the US has to rely on another country for their OIL.

The US doesn't need OPEC or NATO.  That is very significant.

So you are suggesting nationalizing our oil industry?

Why is it that not allowing oil drilled on public lands to be sold out side of North America is nationalizing our oil industry?

Not allowing oil drilled on public lands to be sold out of Noth America.  Pretty ez to do . They don't want to do that then they don't have to apply for the permit or the lease. I am sure some one will step in and take the lease . If not it can sit in the ground till someone wants it
