Biden Can't Abandon US Oil Industry

Scott Ritter- The challenges confronting US democracy in the upcoming presidential election are very real.

The challenges confronting US democracy in the upcoming presidential election are very real. With a genuine risk of post-election violence, the country’s unbroken history of a peaceful transition of power may have run its course. The challenges facing the victor will also be enormous, running a broad gamut of domestic and foreign policy issues that will remain the same regardless of who wins. Energy security will be near the top of this list, given its dual characteristic as a domestic and foreign policy matter, and the critical role it plays in the economic health of both the US and the world. President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden have taken starkly different stances regarding the oil industry, but, in the current stressed and chaotic environment, neither of them will significantly change the current dominant role of oil and gas in the US economy.
