Are they going to use the oil spill as an excuse to increase oil prices?

Jacob asked:


I’ve just read that the oil spill is the equivalent of 2.5 hrs of U.S. consumption. So Obviously there is a lot of oil and it is more plentiful then they would have us believe. Also the insurance policy on the oil rig was twice the value of it so they made millions off of this spill. So my question is did they plan this whole thing to cash in on their insurance policy and then jack up oil prices and in turn make even more money?

Critical_rationalist asked:


that’s what was said BEFORE the election. Jimmy Carter even said it, but the election is OVER and gas prices and oil prices are still dropping!

Why isn’t big oil forcing the prices back up since they set the prices at will (according to liberals)?
a lot of you need to look up “sarcasm”!

Can we use falling oil prices against our enemies?

Monday, December 5th, 2011

Matthew D asked:


Venezuela and Iran both depend almost entirely on oil revenues to keep their America hating governments in power. Since they spend so much on defense and public works and public welfare, a sudden decline in revenue spells their doom. They also have inferior oil compared to other countries which means theirs costs more to extract and refine, meaning that oil below a certain value literally prices Venezuela’s and Iran’s oil out of the market. Is there a way we can take advantage of the fall of the price of oil and sink those America hating regimes?
