It seems Kinda shitty that the US has plenty of oil to fuel it's own nation for pennies on the dollar, but we make more money exporting our own and buying someone elses...

A lot of it has to do with geography. Alaska is a lot closer to Japan than many other sources, so it make sense to sell to the Japanese. The price of crude has to include the cost of shipping it. Much of the oil we import comes from Venezuela and Mexico, which are closer to us than the middle east.
