    glynch now cares deeply about oil, but only with regards to Russia.

    Fun stuff, as expected, from an unfrozen 60's radical

    Buckster, sorry not fun stuff. Maybe you should just stick to sports and entertainment . LIghten up !. Be a hipster/, skeptic . Get all your political "ideas" from comedians or light perusal of the mainstream media. .

    Why not encourage NATO with US leadership to bomb nuclear armed Moscow? (Even Biden who supported virtually all our wars ruled that out.) Why worry about nucear war or at a minimum waste trillions of dollars on an expanded Cold War II? Why worry about a wordwide depression due to oil markers which are largely set worldwide and not by Russia or the US? Why be concerned about such ephemeral topics?

    That isn't or shouldn't be a guilty pleasure. No guilt involved at all

    Swan Lake is what Soviet TV used to show for days in a row on a loop whenever the leader died. People openly, if indirectly, calling for Putin's removal in the streets of St. Petersburg.

    Today will be an interesting day.
    Let's see if they are offering "Tomahawk" steaks on the menu at the White House today.

    There are many possible causes of a world depression - including the death of Putin (from age or otherwise) and the incredible chaos that will happen in Russia...... the rise of authoritarianism in the USA and Western Europe going unchecked, the rise of a Gulf State/Israel faction...... or another pandemic.... but I personally don't think that the US decision to arm Ukraine and to target Russia will be the cause.

    It is amazing, you would think that they would know how to design a safer window by now. Between their inability to control the release of poisonous substances and windows - I am shocked there is any opposition to Putin.

    True story - Stalin's favorite way to assassinate Jews that were either influential in art/drama, science or politics was to have a truck run over them when they attempted to cross the street. in like a 2-3 span a dozen actors, scientists and political opponents all were victims of hit and run truck events.

    These folks are looking for an extended Winter vacation in Siberia labor camps or perhaps a quick trip to observe first hand the Ukrainian front line.
