Al Capp had it right. Except it's Exxon, not General Bullmoose.

Now they can go to the Siberian Arctic and spill oil all over the damn place. Exxon won't be happy till every source of water is contaminated and species of life are annihilated. I think we ought to kick some ass; we've got nothing to lose but humanity.

At the end of 2015 the total value of all oil reserves
@ $50 per barrel was $164 Trillion. If the price goes up
to $100 per barrel the additional profits equals $82
Trillion.
82 trillion reasons to start a war, rig an election, end a democracy, ??????

We used to support middle east wars over oil. This is the same game, but the war is political, the location is northern and we don't actually need the oil anymore.

Now that the US has enough oil, this is one multinational company making discretionary oil robbing, and the collateral damage is puting ronal mcdonald in charge of everything else.

This is anarchy for profit.
