Oil producers love the profits from this chaos but they understand that it will just accelerate people’s acceptance of renewable energy which will destroy their business in the long run.

Anyone remember in 2020 when oils price went negative for like, a few hours, and that guy in WSB got paid to buy a couple swimming pools worth of oil or something.

Isn't the oil in Venezuela only marketable when the cost is higher?

The pawn shop near me always has about 20 bikes in front. I better grab a good one before they're the only reasonable form of transportation, and the prices skyrocket.
