Trump says he bombed Iran

Hey Don and Pete, our only working spare Royal Navy boat just broke down!   https://www.gbnews.com/news/hms-dragon-f...royal-navy

That's not how it works.

OPEC output shapes global prices.

That's just a fact you will have to accept.

And undercutting isn't sustainable if your costs are higher.

Go and read how these b@stards operate, please.

Do yourself a favour...

Because that is pure fantasy.

Kind of like your wanting a nuclear war to happen wet dream.

That's okay we can change how it works. That is what America does, we make it work.

Yeah, like that's our Royal Navy's only "boat".

Why the misplaced hate for your own Country?

Don and Pete aren't actually reading your febrile posts, by the way, son.

Well, I suggest that's rather naive.

The global oil markets aren't shaped by wishful thinking.

And the United States can't unilaterally "make it work."

Prices, supply chains, and geopolitics dictate outcomes.

Not mere slogans...

Careful or you'll have certain members labelling you an evil communist leftie!!

Adding more competition aka alternative markets, is more capitalist then relying on a cartel to set prices soviet style.

Alternative markets don't magically solve cartel power.

OPEC manipulates global supply.

That's the state of play.

Geography, logistics, and politics, not ideology, determine the prices.

Capitalism alone can't override reality...

It wouldn't be unilateral we would have many partners to achieve the goal of an independent oil market outside the control of OPEC. Us, Israel, Venezuela, the independent and free territory of Alberta and possibly more.

Your words OC jigging up nonsense in your mind again, I love my own country, while at the same time despise BAe Syestems / government procurement for ripping off us taxpayers. You won't get it ever, I dealt with them years ago, total corruption gone mad. Not derailing this thread but I mentioned moving the decimal point years ago. Total corruption and even then they can't come up with a product that actually functions reliably. On the DOn and Pete thing, you have no idea who's reading this right now. We've had plenty of famous folks over the years dropping in. For most it's a read only.

Capitalism is reality, money talks and bullshit walks.
