Hmm. I can feel bad for major, Muslim countries getting 50% less income from everyone in the world and feel bad about the value of CAT stock going down by 20%, or I can insist the world pay 100% more to those countries and get CAT stock back up by almost 30%.

I think I'm fine with the world cutting all oil revenues by half.

It’s not an either or world. You can be happy to pay less at the pump AND hope that CAT finds a way to navigate this time without laying people off and feel bad for folks if they don’t. And feeling bad for folks negatively effected doesn’t mean insisting the price go back. I’ve helped put companies competing with my own out of business, I feel bad for the folks losing their jobs but I’m a-ok with winning.
