Oil and Gas - Should We Have Been Pumping More Oil and Gas?

In his view, America should have been pumping more oil and gas. I would put it in a critical category and this should be treated almost as a matter of war at this point. No poor nations, India, China, Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam are turning back on coal plants as our rich nations called Germany, Netherlands, France. We have it completely backwards. Can you argue with that? I can't.
