spin_dry Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 (edited) I don’t see trump abandoning the saudis. He’s defended everything they’ve done including dismembering a journalist and fire bombing schools with little kids.

No easy answer. The more policy is done to keep consumer prices in check it hinders exploration, expansion and profitability in our own oil industry. In the end I'd rather see prices lean on the low side for consumers but not so low as to not allow domestic production to thrive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is surprising coming from you.. NOT. Typical you not understanding my point. Did you miss the part where I said policy that leans toward the consumer? That said there is nothing wrong with also a certain amount of protection for our oil producing companies as well when it comes to foreign policy. Overall I would like the markets to decide but since oil is a worldwide market our production alone does not control prices. In the end I'd like the market to shake out the winners and losers and not the govt. No different than in Ag. There is nothing wrong with having policies with foreign govts to keep markets as free from price fixing or collusion as possible.
