Again, you show your staggering ignorance of current events. We are
choosing to do just what I said.
ExxonMobil and a consortium of US oil companies are investing 15 billion
dollars in partnership with Russian oil companies and the Russian
government to modernize the Russian oil industry and to, now pay
attention: take OPEC out of the picture entirely. Within the next
decade, if not sooner, OPEC will cease to matter. As a matter of fact,
the EU commission and Mr. Monti are looking into whether or not OPEC is
an illegal monopoly, which of course it is.
You really should get out of the cave once and a while breathe some
fresh air and read the newspaper, if you even know how to read. I
wouldn't want to ascribe any intellect or skill to you that you are
likely not to possess.
Cheers.
