No, it is not a 'reasonable position' because you have not thought through a single impact of such would have or what would replace the US as the leading economy.Because you are pissed when you don't get the answer you want. Mine is a perfectly reasonable position. When one has something, they should not abuse it or you risk losing it.
What I want is also irrelevant. I can change nothing. Other countries have grown tired of our bombs in place of reasonable diplomacy.

Like I said earlier, all nations play this game. If we are not at the helm then China will be, that is simple a fact. If you think that leads to less conflict or misery in the world then you are simple ignoring history.
Yes. We waste trillions leading the world. That is why, a nation that has 4.2% of the worlds population, the US has 30% of the wealth of the planet.Let China waste Trillions of dollars trying to lead.

Again, your position is not reasonable because you have not thought about the consequence of it.

The latest news is that the Biden Administration is trying to reign in OPEC and domestic producers (who favor Republicans and are conspiring to wound him and maximize profit taking at the same time) by coordinating an unprecedented international release of strategic reserves.
This is unlikely to make a major difference in the short run, but may make his enemies realize he means business. Hopefully they will hesitate to drive prices higher.
Biden is gonna sniff their hair.How is that going to "rein" in OPEC ?
It was because OPEC called it a day after they found out they would no longer undercut the US shale oil and LNG because the US would be in "all you can fracking" mode after Trump had moved into WH. Learn the energy politics and US dollars history.Oil prices fell with the pandemic and the argument was Trump caused the prices to fall. What else is one to conclude?
The price of oil was up from 2016 until Covid hit. Please explain.
What is going on is leftist dolts drinking too much climate change activists' Koolaid. I am all for environmental protection, but global warming is as fake as AV's orgasmThe many oil and Republican lobbies would tie us all to trees, cut them down, and harvest our bones. But of course that’s just my talking metaphorically. To understand what is really happening, you need to think more deeply about what is going on…
He should fight them and the Saudis. But you are right. The oil giants and their allies have Biden — and all of us — under their thumbs. Does this surprise anybody?He means business? LOL!
Why would they hesitate? Will he restrict production, to teach them a lesson?

Didn’t Trump go play footsie with the Saudis right after they killed Khashoggi? Doesn’t the Military Industrial Complex still sell them and other Gulf oil shiekdoms billions in weapons — all while invading or destroying oil production in Iraq & Libya, sanctioning / destroying oil sales out of Iran and Venezuela, while vetoing China’s offers to rebuild Iraq’s oil infrastructure? This has been bi-partisan policy for a long time and nobody — certainly not Biden — will reverse it anytime soon. And so we all pay at the pump.
Even so, the price of gasoline will not stay high for long. Probably — before the 2022 elections — we are unlikely to see prices go way down again, nor will the Saudi’s cooperate with Biden as they might for their boy Trump. Biden is still refusing to meet with the butcher MSB, but he may have to meet with him soon.
It would take a better President to release the files on 9/11, sue the Kingdom for a few hundred billion dollars, force the removal of MBS, etc.
That's what got Trump elected before.Watching these two women trying to explain the high prices and labor shortages is nothing short of comedy. LOL. According to them the high prices and shortages I’m personally witnessing is just Republican false news. It’s not really happening. Economic indicators say all is fine. smh
Oh yeah.....let the government run it do it can soar to 20 bucks a gallon 19 of which will end up in DC.We need a full commie takeover of America's resources, you know, to make it fair, so they can shut it all down in favor of green energy to save their god, mother Earth from the mean humans.
Toddsterpatriot, I’ve addressed all these issues a hundred times. Your first “question” already shows you have no idea what I’m talking about and haven’t even read my comments in this thread. Not interested in repeating myself. Search for my name, “oil” and “Saudi” — or find somebody else to troll.
