... and I bet you are a player, you stupid degenerate, loser, now you'll try trading and you will have a positive extectancy? Haha!! Not in your lifetime with YOUR attitude, putz!
Hardly. Except for sports betting and backgammon I don't gamble. Haven't spent twenty hours lifetime in casinos.......
The US does not get money and power out of it. The Iraqi oil just like the Kuwaiti oil goes on the free market for any country or TRADER such as ourselves to buy. There is no power to be gained either. The US is not taking something away from them. When the US 'invaded' Kuwait, did we take their oil like Saddam tried to? Did we take control of Kuwait's government? Did the US take money and control of any country after WWII? Aren't all these WWII countries free and democratic thanks to the US? People and the media would really have had a fit if we had 'invaded' Rwanda. I liked how the UN and troops refused to protect the Tutsis preferring rather to negotiate as the massacre was underway. Everyone better do what the UN says. They know best.
I would paste that on my SUV, but I don't think it matches my chrome dubs and Gucci interior. West side jigga!!!
Lol. I just saw from your profile that you were at the CBOT. Funny but I don't remember any pinko's on the floor. Perhaps it's YOUR attitude that caused you to go from floor trader/broker to casino pawn while I'm kicking back with a few BOT shares.......
Oh really. Last time I checked energy prices are materially up since 2003, Halliburton pocked billions on contracts and so on⦠Do not get me wrong, I fully understand that people with power will always screw the rest of us, and if any one of us ends up on the top, we will probably do it too. Just do not be naive that billions of dollars are spend to bring "freedom" to Iraqis out of our good will.
The 'experts' have always been blaming China on consuming more and more oil and driving up energy prices. Others say there is a glut of oil on the market but energy traders are driving up oil based on fear or whatever. I think it's the traders, but I don't want to give us traders a bad name. I wish the bleepin' war was over too. Stability should be the rule.
