The oil companies.@petergleick And they're making a killing from insider trading: https://paulkrugman.substack.com/p/grand-theft-oil-futures
These people aren't complex. They want all the money. They make soldiers die to get more money. They spend billions of our tax dollars to juice up their investments in military industrial companies. They put thousands of us in private prisons that they have significant investments in. They give huge contracts to AI companies (the type of contracts that make up 50% of their revenue) they've invested in.

@xerge @petergleick You ever seen that dude, usually in a giant truck, who drives on the shoulder to get to the front of a slow line of traffic and get to an exit sooner? That guy?
He thinks we'd do it too if we were as smart as him--we'd all do it if we were as smart as him. He gets to go to the front of the line because he's smarter than the rest of us waiting in traffic. That's what he thinks.
But really, it's just because no one has ever punched him in the face for being a total asshole.
@clonedhuman @petergleick perhaps the US justice system will one day be able to punch Don the Con in the face, but I'm not holding my breath.

The oil companies.@petergleick Gasoline prices will not go down once they go up. Oil companies are finding out how much they can get away with once everyone's standards have been lowered, just like every other time the price has gone up.

@Npars01 @petergleick I like your referencing. Without any at hand, I wonder, does a price increase of fossils bear any positive effect? Where is the long-term profit?
The windfall profits to the fossil fuel industry is estimated at $30 million an hour for the war on Iran.
The personal profits to GOP donor, Ron Lauder, for the Ukraine minerals shakedown is unknown.
https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/08/world/europe/trump-lauder-ukraine-lithium.htmlThe personal profit to Paul Singer & John Addison for the Venezuelan oil attack is unknown because it's laundered through Qatar.

The oil companies.Hint:
Communism = too little is never too little
Capitalism = too much is never too much
Democratic Socialism = YOU.. a RANGE/SCALE in the MIDDLE of extremes, like birth~death.
The math of physics doesn't have to be all that difficult, all the time. Your children don't have to be brainwashed into single solve mindsets, making them subservient to the abusers who know how to 'keep you/yours in range', by oppressing/suppressing to minimal returns, while giving more and more.
REPLACE ABUSIVE POWER WITH ETHICAL SCIENTISTS

The oil companies.@petergleick you're telling me these companies are raising these prices above what they need to cover the increased costs due to the war and the strait being closed? who would do that? charge more just because they can?

Well nobody ever punched him correctly with the heel of their flat open hand to knock his nose back into his stupid brain and turn it off.

The oil companies.@petergleick Let's be fair, in the final results the winner of Iran war is [or will be] Iran.
No American on either side of the political aisle will ever be able to deal with that, so for the Left oil companies and their American investors won; for the Right America [somehow] won because the orange baboon says so.
