Very interesting. One thing i believe, the USA developed it's oil industry because of local demand for energy to drive industry, making the US a productive colossus. Pipeline thread across the nation to points of productivity, not shipping ports. Much of the rest of the world has developed their energy in order to satisfy demand in other countries., often leaving their rulers rich but the citizens still poor and the country undeveloped, to wit Saudi Arabia and Nigeria.
What a glorious picture, and this is what our nut jobs want to break. Very sad.
