Quote:I could be wrong, but this is not what I am hearing. As far as I understand, the oil isn't coming here. It's going to be sold on the global market. How does that equal energy independence?

All oil is sold on the global market, it'll simply be refined in Texas which would be a boost in our share of the global oil trade. As for energy independence that'll be accomplished when we get off fossil fuel but that's so far down the road I can't even imagine it right now. For now I'm happy with simply exporting more and importing less.
