Burgum: America’s Natural Resources Could Wipe Out the National Debt

100 Percent Fed Up
Hits: 24

Doug Burgum just put a $100 trillion price tag on America’s resources.

To be clear, the resources that we haven’t even tapped into yet.

Speaking at a Breitbart event, the Interior Secretary broke it down.

We’ve got 700 million acres of public land.

We’ve got 2.5 billion acres offshore.

And enough minerals, oil, and gas to take out the national debt.

Turns out, the U.S. is sitting on a goldmine!

We just gotta start digging.

Makes you wonder if the Democrats knew this the whole time.

Breitbart reports:

Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum said the natural assets of the U.S.could be worth triple the country’s $36.6 trillion national debt during a Wednesday policy event hosted by Breitbart News.

The conference, just blocks away from the White House in Washington, DC, featured fiery statements from Burgum as he was interviewed on stage by Breitbart News Washington Bureau Chief Matt Boyle.

“… I can tell you, as the head of Interior, where just in Interior, we’ve got 500 million acres of surface. Brook Rollins has another 200 million in the U.S. Forest Service, in U.S. grasslands. So 700 million acres of surface, there’s 700 million acres of subsurface that we have the mineral rights, critical minerals, oil and gas, you know, metallurgical and thermal coal resources.

And there’s 2.5 billion acres of offshore, many of which have not been even explored. All of which represent huge, huge assets for us. So if you take our forests, our lands, our grasslands, our lands that are near urban areas, our mineral resources or offshore resources, I think the number is… Double, triple, what our national debt is. It could be a 100 trillion. “

Time to drill, baby, drill!

And also dig up the resources we need.
