That guy is a nut ball....ever see the video of his appearance on the game show. LOL!
But as long as it makes sense to buy oil from him....why hurt the US market by refusing it. Let's keep draining his reserve. Hugo knows we are his best customers...and he knows will are not likely to attack him. So his treat to cut us off id we attach him is just his usually nuttiness.
Not buying from Citgo may drive their gasoline prices down, but it'll have a minor effect unless we all do it. However, at the same time the other gasoline retailers will see a rise in demand, and they will likely increse their prices.
Sure it would be nice to drill for our own oil, but let's face it, energy independence is not a likely scenario no matter which side of the political line you sit. So on that note, not being able to drill off our own coast is good for the country's future. At some point we'll need oil so badly that everyone will be asking the oil companies to drill along the coasts.
