I agree. Hobbling Middle East producers and Russian infrastructure, while confiscating Venezuela's supply, leaves the US as the main beneficiaries of high prices and the rest of the world more worse off than America.

Great way to boost Texas and nerf California, too

Good point. I'm not sure whether it's mostly better for purple areas, though.

america has become oil and gas exporteur. So it makes sense.
The US fracking industry was nearly dead and now is exporting lng to europe. Imagine the friction in fracking, loading on special ships, shipping across the world, build a plant on both sides, one for liquefying gas, and on the other side, facilities for converting the liquefied gas back into gaseous form.
Meanwhile russian gas that was transportet by a pipeline with nearly no friction is burned in russia because it is a nearly worthless byproduct when you extraxt oil. And then they tell you that carbon emissions are bad and you have to pay tax.
It is only geo politics of petrodollar and zionism why US is attacking iran
