@Kentolio@MarcNixon24 I can't go in there without spending 200 dollars, I just can't imagine going every 4 days.
My family of 4 is at probably 800 dollars a month but that's not a lot of meat
@realist800@FPX500@CanadianPM Oil was $140 dollars a barrel ($200 dollars today) and then the US economy / USD collapsed. Soo let's check again 6 months.
@pug_mahone81@BartFurley It would stay right there if it didn't first move to a central spot. These central spots tend to attract more people and thats how we invent cities from first principles
@electromechgirl I'll throw a "hot" take out there. Multiculturalism political project in Canada was historically a way to dilute French and Native power and exists currently to provide an underclass to serve boomers
@MesoAnglic Never thought about it in a broader 2014 sense - but we have a separatist movement here that exists because they want to go back to the 2014 oil boom and believes it was national politicians that ended it rather than economic factors
@SportsAndStock1@Humtumandfun@KobeissiLetter Trump stuck his dick in a wasp nest and doesn't know how to get out and it will destroy the world economy in the process. Say goodbye to the American century!
@SportsAndStock1@Humtumandfun@KobeissiLetter If a guy, surrounded by his crew, punches you in the face, and you punch him and all of his crew in the face you're a fucking legend
@Analytic_Trader@GracyTx@DeFiTracer Because the reserve currency, global petrol dollar. Saudi Arabia isn't going to prop up a inflating currency that no longer offers protection and can be stolen at anytime because Americans really love buying plastic garbage
@Mattl8241@VanIsleInvestor I've heard "oh if there was no carbon price Canada could step up to supply the oil from the Middle east"
Because companies love investing in overcapacity for black swan events.
This is their free market working as intended, but it isn't working out how they wish it would
@Mattl8241@VanIsleInvestor The oil shocks in 1973 and 1979 killed muscle cars and brought in efficient Japanese cars. They spurred nuclear power development and green energy.
The global south isn't going to buy more oil - it's going to move to solar.
Where is the oil consumption growth coming from?
@Mattl8241@VanIsleInvestor If there were no taxes at all and Canada paid for every piece of infrastructure, the oil companies would want more.
2014 to this year oil has been in a glut with OPEC cutting to maintain prices.
No company is going to expand if 2mbd more production kills their profit margin
@miccoish@peggy_blair@stphnmaher Or that for the last decade oil has been in a glut and even with no taxes the oil sands is still incredibly expensive compared to the Mid East and traditionally oil crisis lead to green energy / nuclear energy booms with electric vehicles being fully equipped to take over
