Reply #6: Its REALLY about China [View All]

[paparush]

yes..on the surface, its about oil and money money money...BUT...the real purpose of that oil is not to bring the price down. The purpose is to CONTROL the oil. As China grows, its consuming more and more oil. Since China has nukes, huge armies, etc, we need a way to keep China in line and that way, for the forseable future is oil. Which is why BushCo want to own as much of the Middle East as humanly possible. Lives be damned.

China yanks our debt chain, we squeeze China's oil pipeline. Its a sick attempt to 'level' the playing field and keep the US viable.

It'll never work.
