The US citizens needs to reexamine where they buy oil from

 



The United States has changed some in who they buy oil from, but there are still questionable locations that are sources of crude for the nation. Canada is the largest producer of oil coming into the US, with Mexico being number two on the list. Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and Venezuela lead the list of nations that should make people ask why they are on the list. Saudi Arabia and Iraq should make people wonder because of the unstable area that could lead to the supply being cut off. Venezuela is run by a totalitarian government that has started having a worse record on human rights than the Saudis.

Canada and Mexico

Keeping Canada and Mexico stable is necessary, along with the fact that Canada has been an ally for over a century, even with the current government. Mexico needs ways to become more stable, which can be helped by a prosperous oil industry. With all the problems in the nation, getting them to the point that they see us as an economic ally will slow down their citizens coming here and hopefully will cause them to help secure the border. Some of this sounds like pipe dreams, but stability brings about good reforms, normally.

Saudi Arabia and Iraq

With Saudi Arabia being our main Islamic ally in the Middle East, there are many reasons to spend some money there. They are a repressive government, but important to what stability there is in the region. The US still has a pipe dream of keeping Iraq stable, which is one of the considerations to buy oil from them. This does not mean it is working. Both nations are in an area that is dangerous to transport crude oil, or anything else, from. The area, no matter what any nation does to help, is violent and constantly changing how this happens. The purchases should be paid attention to.

Venezuela

There is absolutely no reason to buy crude oil from a nation that has a government that openly hates the United States. While many in the Democrat Party supported the change to totalitarianism, the government starved and outright killed many of their citizens to solidify their power, exactly like Stalin, Mao, and Che did. The US, under the Trump administration, actually stopped buying from them. Under the Biden administration, this has started back up. It should make people wonder why.

The United States can handle its own production, as was shown while Trump was President. Using oil from Canada and Mexico makes sense, but nowhere near the level that we do. Saudi Arabia and Iraq make no sense from a true logistical or financial standpoint, along with the problem of politics from these purchases. Venezuela makes zero sense in any manner, no matter the claims of sanction issues.

House GOP slashes millions in support of criminal aliens and abortions

The House GOP fought to remove questionable pet project funding from the federal budget, which included help for abortions and criminal aliens. This will save millions of taxpayers, which will also prevent voter backlash to members of the GOP who have done nothing when they have done nothing regarding their campaign promises. Some of the places that lost funding will cause an uproar within the LGBT community and their supporters, but it will also cut a bloated budget that is dragging us further into debt. Abortion Locations Congressman Robert Aderholt (Al-4) who is the Chairman of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education, listed several of the projects that lost funding. Women and Infants Hospital in Rhode Island was to get $1.8 million and is known for late term abortions. Dartmouth Hitchcock, Nashua in New Hampshire was to receive $650,000 and is also known for late term abortions. These being removed cleared away a lot of the politica...

One of the ways modern healthcare is shaped by insurance

  People need to be aware of the ways that insurance companies shape how doctors treat people, as it affects their personal care. There are multiple terms and groups that people have never heard of that become important to medical practices and getting paid. Some of the ways that insurance makes demands are common sense, which should make people wonder why doctors are doing certain things. At the same time, the demands raise administrative costs for doctors, while shaping how they can be paid. Quick Disclaimer This article is for education purposes, not as a complaint against any of the people mentioned. It is so that people will know about an important part of their lives. Much of the way that this information was gathered for understanding was by getting to talk with someone who has been an insurance quality professional for almost two decades. Some of it can be disturbing to some, while other parts are just a way for people to gain knowledge.  NCQA and HEDIS One of the grou...
