Oil-pipeline attack in Nigeria shuts down lots of production
Nigeria is one of the top five suppliers of crude oil to the United States. So when we hear that one of the major pipelines out of the country has been attacked by a terrorist group, it should give us considerable pause to consider whether it's a smart idea to be so dependent upon such unstable parts of the world for one of our critical national needs. No country is energy-independent...but we could do a lot better at being a lot less energy-submissive.
