Who ever heard of such a idea?

#3 Of COURSE Slow Joe will refill the SPR with the lower priced oil, right? Right?

#4 Short of setting the SPR up so it can't be manipulated as Joe has done over the past three years, it should just be left empty.

#5 This does surprise me. The current US economy is strong (I'm not saying the long term is good), and Russia has to be gobbling oil like there's no tomorrow. India is growing at their usual rapid pace. Is the slowdown in China really that bad?

#6 China is being built up (by the usual suspects in the US) as the Godzilla sized boogyman of the USA. China may be closer to a Potemkin village on the verge of collapse than any of the "experts" are willing to admit.

Remember how surprised the CIA was when the USSR collapsed?

#7 Everything I’ve read for years suggests China is just a bunch of economic bubbles that started popping just before the Covid shutdown.. compounded by what looks like a long-term below-replacement birthrate leading to falling population. Possibly the bubbles would have been popping all along, but the shutdown masked those problems with more urgent problems.

#8 the risk of a supply surplus due to an increase in oil supplies from the United States.

Sorry, I missed that little bit of news.

If it is not disinformation, we'd better not tell the Greta Greenies.

#9 I think at this point anything that will help the economy will be left alone by the "fossil fuels must die" crowd until after the election.

Hopefully, after the election, they will be on the outside looking in.

#10 If Trump is elected and lifts the pipeline and drilling bands, hold on tight !
