Todays “raw truth” statement is:

According to the national news the U.S. is a major global oil producer and our oil exports are at record highs thanks to the Iran war. Really? So, with Venezuela’s oil supposedly available to us, why the hell is my home heating oil bill so much higher than it was before Trump’s war?

Who’s making the high profits and who’s forcing us to pay them? Making a living in the oil industry is quite different from making a killing.
