Just before the invasion of Iraq, I saw talking heads on bubblevision, saying words to the effect: "the US oil companies will move in, develop Iraq's resources, flood the market with oil, and drive the price down to $10/bbl." Remember how that worked out?

Here we go again.

Trump says when he’s done with Iran, oil prices will drop lower than they were before

“People felt it’s something that had to be done,” Trump said about the strikes on Iran. “As soon as this ends, those [oil] prices are going to drop, I believe, lower than even before.”

He got that line of bullshit from both Jesse Waters and Maria Bartiromo, who have been spouting that exact verbiage for a couple of months now on FOXNews.

We have a president who gets his Daily Briefing, not from the NSC, but from Rupert Murdoch’s stable of misfit toys.

Hopefully the price doesn't go too low--- as long as it's low enough to encourage Americans to enjoy large comfy modes of transport, and as long as its low enough to make alternative fuels a bit less profitable and worth it- --all is good.

And it's more about control.

America - CONTROLS more of the world's Fossil Fuels.

How cool is that
