that's a very silly thing to say.

The White House can most certainly influence the patterns, rates, and
rates-of-change of use of non-renewable assets.

He may not have absolute control, but he has more than all but maybe 3
or 4 of the 303,500,000 people currently residing in the US.

now, what were you saying about orons?

Dwindling supply? Are you all fools? You mean the supplies that your
President and Vice President are doing their utmost to restrict the
flow of so their own little oil companies don't suffer whilst your
little economy is slowly suffering??

Nope.

Nope. In spades world wide.

He has no control what so ever.

None of those individuals have any control either except of their own
personal use, and that has no effect whatever on the global usage.
