Duplicitous barbarians.

And, to be fair, Trump did get OPEC to agree to reduce oil production, which will help keep oil prices from tanking (lol) more than they already have. I realize that there are those that said it didn't go far enough, but it went somewhere.

Like pj, I don't know much about oil, but looking at the big picture, having the OPEC nations economies sink drastically can't be a good thing, just as is true with ours. Especially when those countries are more than happy to start wars (looking at you, Iran) over it.

Waiting for P*D to correct me.... Wink

Hah! Well, it depends on who you think are your friends, and who you would like to see resource-constrained. Losers include Iran (yippeeee), Russia (yipeee), Venezuela (yipeee). Losers also include Norway (they can handle it), Saudi/Kuwait/Qatar/UAE (well, to me, they can just deal with it ... Mik too, obviously). Losers also include North Dakota, Texas, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, blah, blah...

Yeah, it's those last ones I worry about more. Another nail in the Iranian mullahs' coffins? As you said, yippee.
