I think its important to think about:
We didn't invade Iraq to GET its oil. We are taking over the mideast to CONTROL the oil.
so, in other words, we are not trying to get ample supply, we are fighting to allow oil companies to constrict supply to elevate prices.
think about what that means.
(corrected "world" to "universe")
