That contradicts your earlier statement but that’s fine. Does the price of fuel matter or not?

[ErroneousBosh]

How exactly does it contradict my earlier statement?

If you can't get oil, you can't grow food.

Fuel doesn't come into it.

You won't have fertiliser.

Fuel comes from oil.

We're the number one oil and gas producing country in the world. Nobody is concerned about whether or not the United States can grow food or fertilize it. At a higher cost? Yea maybe. Oh well - the alternative is unacceptable.
