Trump Questions U.S. Defense of Oil in Strait After Iran Attacks
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...s-defense-of-oil-in-strait-after-iran-attacks

Oil is a commodity whose price is determined by international markets, if the price of oil rises it rises everywhere to include here. So while most of the oil that goes through the Strait of Hormuz goes elsewhere if it is shut down then it affects us almost as much as the folks who get their oil through there. And that remains a fact even if we become 'energy independent' in the next few years.
