Light Sweet Crude Oil
 
Member Quotes
Like the illusion of Wall Street, with its vast and powerful investment banks, now shuttered, China too is an illusion perpetuated by the Globalists that gave us the 15,000 mile Caesar salad, poisoned cat food and lead based paint on babies' pacifiers. Like the illusion that money would come from thin air to always push housing prices higher, China has spent a generation pursuing its illusion. Pursuing an unattainable dream to be like the West, while 6000 years of its carefully shepherded top soil blows into the sea.

The guy at the end representing Big Ethanol is a major arse. He is raving about some stupid technology that might exist in 5 years while millions go hungry right now. He is a modern day Marie Antoinette with a neo take on 'let them eat cake.'

Al Jazeera is in the forefront of investigative television reporting once again. I'm not surprised, but it's a noteworthy phenomenon nonetheless.

AL Jazeera how can you trust anything they say?

Just kidding, nice piece. Corn ethanol needs to be stopped now it is the worst idea ever. The last few minutes prove that fact.
