Also, if a Democrat takes office in 3 years the government's stance towards Venezuela could change dramatically. Big oil needs 100% guarantees from the U.S. government before they deep dive billions there. After all, they are doing just fine right now and oil is less than $60 per barrel.

That is true. But, it’s also the reason there isn’t anyone within Venezuela’s borders willing to help. It’s also the reason Argentina’s navy couldn’t leave its own shores without someone seizing its ships.
How many times were ships seized from Argentina? Are you saying there was a something like blockade?
The summary I read said Singer seized one ship in Gahna, but due to international pressure it was released. Later, Argentina voluntarily paid off the bonds.

That is the current short term risk. I was thinking the same. The liberals could give it back like Carter did the Panama canal. Or let a dictator return.
Trump should use Venezuela oil as a way to protect the US so called places like in Alaska were the environmentalists want to protect. He could use this as a way to look like he is environmentally friendly. His argument could be - Why drill in protected areas now that we got Venezuela oil. That would be slick.

Unless your wealthy. Investing in oil & gas is dumb.

Considering Huey Long’s family is still receiving royalties from Louisiana’s oil
Wait, the Long family is still receiving royalties from Louisiana oil? How in the pluck does this happen.

I am dumb. I despise my quarterly dividend payments.

Venezuela is the largest reserves in the world.
Oil reserves is one thing. Price point is another.
Not all those reserves are economical at $55 oil. Some are. Some aren’t.
What percentage of those reserves can be economically recovered now, and what percent needs say…$75 oil, or $100 oil?

Well, Darren's little "uninvestable" remark just got Exxon on Trump's sh!t list.

Trump may be doing ExxonMobil a favor, we shall see.

If that’s our President’s response to that one take by Woods, then Vance or someone needs to advise him to not be so overly sensitive.

I didn't realize that was last night.
Any right-leaning, pro-America politician should take it as a compliment if a bunch of pedo enablers in Hollywood have mean things to say about you.
