Alright, there is some elementary understanding about how commodity markets work that is missing from your responses. I've done my best to explain it, but if you are intent on willfully failing to understand such a simple concept, then there is nothing more I can do. Good day.
Funny, you aren’t at all taking into account or he fact we import more oil from everywhere else than we do from Russia, and none from Iran.
Further, we EXPORT ten times the amount that we import from Russia.
Do the math.
100,000 x 10 =?
Has nothing to do with markets, you are drifting from your premise.
Your premise was that somehow Russia would be hurt by us not importing oil from anywhere.
We don’t import that much from them.
And none from iran.
“ Want to defund Iran’s nuclear program? Buy an electric car.”- your post 1
“ Are you kidding me? If the U.S. and Europe drove plug-ins (including plug-in hybrids like the Volt), it would reduce our gasoline consumption by 80% to 90%.
That would have a devastating impact on oil exporting nations like Iran and Russia.”-your post 85.
Neither statement supported by import export data.
