Quote by: Technosoul Yeah - it is not like the old idea "if the product costs too much go buy a cheaper one". That would be like saying you can change the radio station if you do not like it - but then you find out their is only one station left to listen too. Removing Saddam did in effect remove the "cheap oil" that he offered some countries during the "stuff or oil" days (embargo). He even made sweet deals here in America as well as with France, Russia, and China. But now he is in jail and so - no more competition from someone "outside" of the control of the "big boys". Perhaps Iran? But how long will that last?
Am I the only person that has seen how this all was played out - surely others must have come to that same conclusion? |
So you are blaming the removal of Saddam on the oil problems of today? Try going back to October of 1973. Do some historical research and you will find America has been asleep at the wheel since then. We have had 33 years to wean ourselves off the "big oil" tit, and we have done NOTHING.
