Exactly! Why bother trying to grow hemp that produces the exact same thing needed from oil?? This just drives down profit margins for the billionaires.
We can reduce the dependence on oil and invest in other alternatives.
Yup, suck it up if your water is on fire. If you need water just talk to Nestle.
Petroleum has prevented us from proper development and has set back civilization. Big oil has suppressed progression. Anyone that doesn’t realize that is just ignorant of facts. Not their fault.People should really stop demonizing petroleum as if modern civilization would be possible without it. They flip all kinds of shit about the US Shale revolution like it happened on account of the Big Oil majors. Most of the exploration innovators would actually be found towards the very bottom of the Fortune 500, if at all. A lot of them went bankrupt during the last pricing war of 2014-16.
There are simply unfortunate environmental byproducts that need to be dealt with, and they will be. Just calm down, baby. Nat Gas is also killing coal along the way. The Green New Deal is a non-starter though, and this would certainly look a lot sexier if it had wielded the geopolitical shake-up that it should've. This is an American triumph, but many don't see it that way. They just don't know.
There are a growing number of self styled leftists who parrot the "Western civilization is threatened" propaganda. It seems to be a recent phenomenon, but it's definitely growing. They enjoy the ethnic diversity of their cities so long as they're kept to an acceptable level that won't threaten white plurality.
50,000? Can you eat petroleum???
Do you have any clue how many products petroleum is used in?
Yup, the Middle East has always held the US oil industry by the balls.
Before private practice I (briefly) worked for a high level environmental nonprofit. Not even they were rigidly opposed to fracking (same for nuclear). They did oppose it in sensitive areas, and I participated in some litigation to that effect. The idea was that gas was killing coal, which is more destructive to extract,People should really stop demonizing petroleum as if modern civilization would be possible without it.

LOL. Nobody learned about hemp when they were 15. It was all propaganda and reefer madness. Big oil and lumber brainwashed the boomers so they could monopolize industry. You’re whacked out of your gourd to not realize hemp plastics could easily eliminate oil plastics. That’s only scraping a tiny surface of what hemp products can do.
The TRIPLE quote???
Really? Come on bro...
Yes, we all learned how wonderful hemp is when we were 15 too. Then we stopped being high and realized what it would cost to retrofit even a 1/4 of the industries in which hemp could replace petroleum.
Not to mention the just plain better ways to go about solving our energy needs. But, ya know, whatever man
