No I was not mislead. My son works in the oil industry. He drills the wells and caps them. A few years back there was a pipeline built from colorado and utah to Wyoming. From wyoming that oil is piped to Canada. The oil is being process in fuel and shipped back to wyoming, idaho, utah, and colorado fuel storage and refining areas where it is sold to stations. And we are paying Canada for that fuel. A few years ago I helped open a sinclair gas station and rv park in Utah and the sinclair fuel delivery truck driver told us he picks up the fuel in Wyoming to deliver in Utah and that it came from Canada as well.
Also it has been on the Utah news that half the fuel sold out of North Salt Lake refinery was fuel shipped to Utah from Canada. One man who owns some oil wells and the trucks that ship them is buiding a refinery in Green River, Utah just because of this reason. The Salt Lake refinery was no longer buying his crude for processing because they had too much now with what they get piped in and with the fuel being shipped to them from Canada.
As for no new wells being drilled my sons company he has like 6 oil drilling teams running constantly and they drill a hole and cap the wells about one every three or four months to one every 7 months and he has six crews doing this. I have been thru his wells in Colorado and Utah and seen the many many capped wells. They say when ever we need it the crude is just waiting to be pumped. But they have no place to send it. He has showed me the many wells that are pumping oil to canada for processing as well as the pipeline they pump it thru.
Sadly we the americans in most cases are blind.
