No blood for oil? Fuck you very much, but I'm all for cheap oil, thanks. I'm just a bit confused about the exchange rate.. we've lost what, 4k souldiers in the 5 plus years of 'The War for Oil'? And the gas prices.. they are where now?
Oh, right. They went up some twenty motherfucking percent.
I'm not even going to start on how all of this impacts the general cost of goods. Suffice to say, most everything you buy has oil (direct, or bi-product) value added somewhere during its production.
The national deficit? Yeah, thats at 9.3 trillion dollars. That piece of shit grew from 5.8 trillion to 9.3 trillion in just eight ass raping years. To put it into perspective, every man woman and child in the U.S of A owe around $30K to all sorts of financial entities (fun fact: 22.7% of that is owed to international interests! Weee!).
Its getting to the point where we will no longer be able to pay the interest on the debt. And that is utterly terrifying.
If the United States were an individual, we would have already declared bankruptcy. Big middle finger up to all of the assholes with the IOUs. Don't expect the back rent.
Mandatory cost of living decrease and credit counciling for all 300 million of us.
Or maybe we can just stop spending so much goddamn money on a war that has no end in sight, and no potential monetary incentive what-so-ever.
