Good News for American Energy
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the United States now produces the most crude oil of any country in the world, passing Russia and Saudi Arabia.
This is good news for America’s economy and its place in the world. It increases our energy independence and diminishes the influence of oil-producing countries that don’t share our interests or values. More American oil production also means more jobs here.
America’s surge in crude oil production also shows that, just as his policy on coal was wrong, President Obama’s oil policy was wrong. At the 2008 Democrat convention, he proclaimed, “Drilling is a stop-gap measure, not a long-term solution.” Ten years later, American oil drilling has propelled us to a dominant position in the oil market.
Americans should take this feat to heart. It’s an achievement that shows just what American ingenuity and a true “all of the above” energy strategy can deliver.
