The world has become a prisoner of OPEC’s oil oligarchs. However, demand and supply dynamics are not at work in this case. The game is being played by the corrupt minds of small men.
It is ironic that, as globally connected as we claim to be, we become more morally disconnected with each passing day. Here’s a bold statement: there is NO shortage of oil in the world, only short men with corrupt minds.
Let us not forget that the pandemic disrupted the daily flow of coins into the oil oligarchs’ piggy banks. 2020/21 were not good years, but they all managed to stay afloat. We are now in Act 2 of As the World Turns, and the players are squeezing the jugular of humanity by inflicting pain on those who need the resources the most. If Covid did not kill you, the price of oil will.
So the real and big question isn’t the predictable behavior of the worthless few, but why does the World bequeath its vital resources to a few who hold it hostage for its own survival?
Andrew Vachss, the writer, summed up the greed of corporate oligarchs perfectly when he said, ” In my world, people are always plotting. You have no idea of all the crimes people in business commit every day. Like it was nothing. Or there’s a set of special rules for them. Remember when Bush made that whole speech about ‘corporate ethics’ last year? What a fraud. You think stuff like Enron or WorldCom is an aberration? It’s only the tip. Business is a religion. Probably the only one practiced all over the world.”
How truthful is that?
