Amazing isn't it. A guy drives a tanker truck off a cliff in China and the price rises.

They tie up most of the tankers in Europe because of a low demand for oil and the price still stays high.

But hey, they're not gouging.

They'll be in trouble as soon as people start to go all electric/alternate en mass, then they will be fighting each other to control the little oil requirements that remain.

Not in my lifetime.

BTW do you really think that by going electric or alternative fuel you'll be away from them?

So I guess you'll be paying a shitload more for electricity when conglomerates like Exxon buy the hydro companies than you do now.

Nothing will change except the resource we're being gouged with.
