The U.S. is and will continue to buy oil for as long as they can, they don't care about the price. We will buy every last drop from every one else until theres none left, than we will tap into our own supply. There are thousands of capped wells all over the states we probably have as much as or more oil under our feet than any other country. Enough to last 100's of years at the rate were going after we dry up every one else. It's all scare tactics and about being the super power when we are the only country left with oil. Doesn't matter though, the japs and chinese will own the country by then.
