eh, how you do you propose we get it here
Its a long drive down there....by boat or plane or seriously modified 4x4.... Then you have an anti western government that doesnt smile on capitalism. Yeah they have some pretty sweet crude, it was the stuff in the 80's and we bought a heck of a lot of it, couple a years ago a man named hugo chavez came around and didn't like the ol us. We no longer buy his oil, and nobody else does either. And even though he's gone we probably wont buy any for a while. As far as trinidad and tobago, its a tough country to buy from as well but I'm almost positive that we pump quite a bit out of there. Just buy the time it reaches you and me its at the market rate of 4.03 a gallon.
We buy most of our oil from canada, about 60% of it. Its not the greatest crude and its a little harder to refine but hey, they are good people and dont use the money to bomb us. Any one care to make a connection between their dollar value and how much oil of theirs we buy.
I vote fiscally conservative, drive a cheap car that gets 41mpg. Have no debt and am working on my savings. I guess I'm awake, don't like the fuel price.... Then find another way.
