I was reading this article regarding the oil glut and the little oil spat between Russia and Saudi Arabia:
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
O ne aspect of this, of course, is all the other producers, such as the US and Canadian oil producers, are getting caught in the middle and are getting screwed over.
But when thinking of ‘screwing people over’, that naturally makes me think of Donald Trump... and Putin.
And it occurred to me that here might be more to this Russia-Saudi oil spat than it seems.
I read a while back that Trump and Putin aren’t quite the best buddies they used to be.
Given that Putin wanted to use Trump to get more normalized relations with the US, and that didn’t happen, I wonder if this little oil spat has the ulterior motive to screw over Trump and his supporters because he’s decided he’d like to see Trump replaced.
And I’m sure Trump’s recklessness with Iran isn’t exactly making the Saudis happy either.
So maybe this might be also partly about screwing over Trump and his oil-industry supporters, but doing it in a way that Trump and his gang will never realize it... or never have enough proof to justify retaliation.
T
hese thoughts are probably
far-
fetched.
They’re just some
musings that popped into my mind and there is no way
we will ever know for sure.

CNN did a story a couple of months ago about how Putin was messing with the elections again and how he seemed to be promoting Sanders. I think Putin did this for two reasons 1. since socialism and communism are similar and, the former is just a more relaxed version of the latter. Putin would have an easy time getting Sanders to talk to him.2. Changing the form of government would keep the United States off his ass since the U.S would be focused on improving how the government worked.

I think its an interesting concept... maybe it piles up on the myriad of other reasons why Saudi Arabia and Russia are trying to out do each other with cheap oil.
The price volatility
of oil just makes me think that my country should really start divesting from it. We should really focus on renewable
energy, and leave our sulfur-
heavy oil alone for a couple of decades until we know how to refine it for less.

Alternatively, splitting the Democrat vote increases the chances of Trump getting reelected.
Russia is much better off with the US in chaos and diminishing from the world stage.

Russia isn’t communist, and electing a socialist as president wouldn’t lead to any real change in our policies, just would put someone there who’d push harder for things like UBI and universal health care.
Putin just wants to see our world burn.

As an Albertan, I wasn’t exactly happy to hear that we had just spent $1B to help out a pipeline. I get that we want to support the local industry, but that $1B could have bought a TON of renewable power, which we could then sell.
