Bah... OPEC and the economy

Last evening's news ran a short report about OPEC claiming some responsibility for the world's economic recover, and released their future intentions after their annual meeting.

I could not find the exact news cast, but did find the write up. Seems these days anybody who can gain fame for anything will surely attempt it.

I have heard that oil may reach $200/barrel within the next year or two.Don't know how much truth is in that.

Makes perfect sense and is straight-forward, not what I usually get from an assassin post.

The world's economies are feuled by petroleum, both figurative and literally. It makes sense that lower cost of this commodity would help encourage growth in any economy which depends upon it to move both consumers as well as goods.

OPEC bragging that they "pwn us" is nothing new either. F OPEC!

Agree with you chewy but dont forget to F the guys who allowed us to still be their Biatches by learning nothing from the mid 1970;s oil crisis.

Not what I expected either. You have failed me!
This is a parody to the followers who have been lead to believe that the current US president is responsible for economic recovery! I guess the wool has been pulled down so hard that circulation has been compromised in the vision of liberal kind!
