[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 1489862, member: 17969"] The IRONY in this concept is that "WE" are the EVIL party to this mess, and not the saudis, or the russians, or libyans, or iranians. The Russians for example have only ridden the back of the american greed machine and with oil prices as high as the GOP could get them, they managed to rebuild their war machine with outrageous profits. Had OIL not blown up under BUSH II, the Russians would have never been able to fund invasions of other countries. The Saudis can live with oil at 60 bucks all day everyday and make huge profits. They dont need 100 dollar a barrel oil. That is the goal of the american oil companies. With the prices dropping so low, those that benefited from the high price of oil are now going to suffer because their infrastructures were re built upon the premise of high prices. In a manipulated market, there are winners and losers. So far, only the american consumer has been the biggest loser since 2001. And you know what president was in office at that point. TOS.
