Reply to comment by JohnnyUtah_QB1 in Biden to release 15M barrels from oil reserve, more possible by cacarca
In March of 2008 we had 730 million barrels in reserve.
In March of 2020 (when we were talking about buying at $24/barrel) we were down to 640 million barrels.
We had room.

Then why did Democrats block Trump from filing the reserves up when oil was going for $24/barrel?

The 40% was just a myth not backed up by proper science.
The 28% is factually accurate and again...really really bad. For comparison though, 23% of all women report being the victim of domestic violence.

40% is not "true" in any way and the reality is that it's much closer to the general population, but still higher.

It's actually not...a sociology professor went hunting for the old 40% myth and found out it's actually 28% (which is still really really bad)

It's a legitimate fear.
The NYPD was caught accepting bribes to get your concealed carry license. Money, hookers, ball game tickets... Who knows how many officers Trump had to blow to get his permit.

Do you think police will start bashing down the doors of white rednecks or black citizens in inner cities?
Police aren't known to be good people.
