I’m particularly amused by the implication that I should’ve appeared on this thread to argue for higher prices (or at least told the person posting the thread to “suck it up”). LOL
You have to understand the free trade crowd really hasn't figured out that supply and demand thingy
i.e. we've supplied the world with dollars, via our huge trade deficits, now the world has dollars to demand the output of our farms and compete with us for the limited oil supplies in the world.
Simple eh?
