let them eat oil

Answer 1

It is all about profit.  Why do our retailers buy Chinese junk?  Profit.  Why do our companies move operations out of our country?  See a trend here?

Answer 2

The middle east countries are not the reason why fuel prices are rising at a high. The main reason is that everyday the demand is increasing at a very high rate, while production can't be increased at the same rate as demand, middle west countries are not restricting their oil to be sold but the problem is with production which can't exceed beyond certain levels. Middle east countries can't stop oil supplies as it is their only business.
