“The OPEC nation’s economy has been steadily collapsing since the 2014 crash of oil prices”
That’s what a turd of a rag Reuters is that they blame the cratering of the economy on the oil prices. Nothing to do with the rabid socialists running a once wealthy country into the ground.
The OPEC nation’s economy has been steadily collapsing since the 2014 crash of oil prices left it unable to maintain its socialist economic system that for years provided lavish subsidies while enforcing strict price controls. …It’s even worse than that. Al-Reuters has no criticism of the “socialist economic system” and in a twist of “logic” implies that higher oil prices were the key to maintaining it; therefore the world must endure higher oil prices.
