"..Big Oil continues to jack-up prices at the pump. ..." ~ Willie Green

And just "who" is "big oil"? LOL

"....over 60% of oil is owned by governments and governments are trying to increase the amount of oil they own and control. For example, government owned companies from India and China are trying to buy oil rights from Canada, Brazil and South East Asia.

Major privately owned oil companies such as ExxonMobile and Shell control less and less of the world’s oil.

How will countries such as China and India react when there is a major disruption in oil supply? Will they allow the oil they control to find its way into the world’s supply system or will they gather it for their own use? ..."

Doubtful.

or will they gather it for their own use? ..."

And why would ExxonMobil or Shell care if they did?
After all, such action would dramatically increase the profit margin of the remaining oil that they DO control.

Frankly, it doesn't matter if "Big Oil" is China, India, ExxonMobil, Shell or OPEC...
NONE of the aforementioned entities have any interest in supplying American consumers with cheap oil that erodes their profit margins.

The enviro-whackos who oppose ANWR drilling are useful idiots who also help keep the price of oil jacked-up.
If they didn't evolve on their own, then Big Oil would've invented them, just to have another bogeyman to blame for high prices.

And Jerome Corsi is just another disingenuous Big Oil shill.
Who cares if his junk science is ideologically opposed to Algore's junk science?

Junk science is junk science no matter which faction of the Republicrat Party is chanting the mantra du jour.
