You liberals forget that Trump had us energy independent and once Biden was installed in office that all got shut down. Don't listen to Bidens lies that none of his policies are stopping oil production in the USA."  First off why do people automatically label you as Liberal if you don't think like they do?  The world and politics is far more gray area than black and white. Maybe some of the more informed on this site can answer me this What state regulators badgered the federal government to roll back energy independence requirements from the 70's. HMMMM maybe ND senators and congressional reps who fought to roll back the requirement that oil produced in the U.S. was to stay in the U.S.. I seem to remember when the Bakken was going balls to the walls oil hit-$100 a barrel. Trump would have had zero control over global oil prices. if he had not lost the election. Many like to think their guy would do things better than the current president at any given point in time. Realistically, it is up to senators and congressmen-women who do the heavy lifting. But I digress, the original post was about the cost of owning things. Buying "Things" is what most people are concerned with and do not think of operational/maintenance costs. The Air Force drastically changed their view when they looked at the operational cost of long life span aircraft. They realized it was cheaper for them to buy less sophisticated systems that are readily upgradable and rotate them out before the maintenance costs killed them. If anyone is still reading this thank for being patient.</blockquote>
