| #3 Umm not so fast Mahmoud. Your oil exports are about 80% of all your exports. What happens if you cut them? Right. Less income, your people won't like it. You know, if you really cut them, oil prices will rise. Your friend China WON'T like that. So you are cutting selectively? Sell more to China, less to the West? Then what? China will buy less from other countries, those countries sell more to the West. Zero sum game. Try Economy 101, Mahmoud. Will save you a headache. |
