The fact that the United States has become a net exporter of petroleum products does not necessarily mean that the United States is in decline. The economic downturn is certainly one of the factors affecting this change. We should also consider new changes in the domestic energy situation in the United States.

Since the U.S. economy is a traditional open economy facing the world market, it exports a lot when it is self-sufficient; when domestic oil cannot meet the supply and the overall cost is getting higher and higher, it will invest and export on a large scale. Operations are moved abroad to obtain profits and meet domestic supplies. This is what you call going downhill.

The United States has become a net exporter of petroleum products, which directly reflects the changes in the U.S. energy supply pattern and indirectly reflects the changes in the U.S. energy consumption pattern. This development and change is largely related to economy and technology. Due to the complete infrastructure and the fact that most gas fields are not too far from users, the utilization rate of natural gas in the United States is relatively high. At the same time, the United States has placed considerable expectations on reducing its dependence on foreign oil on oil substitutes. This was emphasized as early as 2006 in the State of the Union Address. "The best way to get rid of dependence on oil is to rely on science and technology? By conducting research in the fields of ethanol, coal-fired power plants, solar energy, wind energy technology and nuclear energy. This also shows that resources are not the only form of strategic weapons, science and technology can also provide strategic Weapons.

The domestic economic development trend of the United States will continue to slow down in the future, and the insufficient demand for petroleum products will inevitably affect the consumption of petroleum products in the United States and reduce the import of petroleum. At the same time, the remaining refining capacity of US refineries is only 1. Being able to rely further on the export market will inevitably have an impact on world energy market supply. Of course, the current export situation of the United States only reflects the short-term changes in the U.S. energy market. In the next 15 to 20 years, the United States will be a net importer of crude oil. status, this fundamental pattern will still be difficult to change. The United States consumes a lot of oil, and its domestic production is far from meeting domestic demand.

The impact is certain, but whether it will be lost in the short term. It’s hard to judge. After the Iraq war, the United States wanted to control the oil in East Asia and the oil transportation lines in the Middle East. It also dominated the international oil price. The energy needs of the EU, Japan and other allies are controlled by themselves, and then they can suppress their economic development to maintain the economic hegemony of the United States and use the Iraq War to attack the euro and maintain the strong position of the dollar.

my country's high-profile support for the low euro is on the one hand, hoping that the euro can compete with the US dollar, and on the other hand, it hopes to strengthen cooperation between China and the European Union. However, the outbreak of the US subprime mortgage crisis broke the favorable situation of the US-Iraq War. The crisis has spread around the world and has had an extremely serious impact on the three major economies of the United States, the European Union, and Japan. It is the crisis with the most extensive impact on the world since the 1970s. Judging from the depth of the impact, it has caused the three major economies to into recession, and the recession is expected to continue. Judging from the reasons, this is the first crisis originating from within the financial system. Since the financial system plays the role of market financing, this devastating blow to the financial system will lead to The re-establishment of market-oriented financing and credit systems; the crisis will restart the struggle for global voice between developed and developing countries, and the world's economic, political, financial, monetary and other patterns will undergo major changes.
