Free trade? Free markets? Is that what we believe in... or - do we believe in sending our soldiers to defend oil monopolies
How 'humane' and noble to have advocates calling for "us" to "administer Saudi Arabia's oil fields for the common good of the people of the region"
"Administer", as in "preserving the present Aramco monopoly".
Predictably, this is not part of the dialog due to control of the media.
Without a free press democracy devolves into a Punch & Judy show.
