Recently there have been a number of high profile football matches stopped due to medical emergencies in the crowd. Is it happening more often, is there a conspiracy. Time for a thread..... 🧵
@LeeParfitt58058@GaryRWard He hasn't managed for 10 years, and his last stint at Birmingham was a disaster.
Starting to think Robbie Keane is the best option.
@ArizonaRanger03@owenjonesjourno Gotcha, retard, buddy boy. Are you ok?
If you can't argue the points and just want throw insults, that says all it needs to say.
@ArizonaRanger03@owenjonesjourno Quite simple really.
US oil prices are coupled to international prices. Global shortages push up oil prices. US consumers pay more, agriculture costs more. Food goes up, petrol goes up, bills go up. Inflation. Economy is affected.
It has happened and is happening.
@ArizonaRanger03@owenjonesjourno Ok. So US oil prices are coupled to international prices. You now accept that?
But US consumers, businesses and the economy are insulated from any economic shocks of rising oil prices. You think this is also correct?
Either US prices go up they don't. Which is it?
@ArizonaRanger03@owenjonesjourno So the local guy is selling at $2 and you're buying for $1 from middle East.
When Middle East oil supply is disrupted, the government will sell oil domestically for $1?
And instead of just selling internationally at $3, domestic producers will just drop their price to $1??
@ArizonaRanger03@owenjonesjourno US oil prices are not intrinsically coupled to global prices?
It's just that Brent Crude and Western Texas Intermediate prices have correlated exactly since 1992, entirely by coincidence?
@ArizonaRanger03@owenjonesjourno Since I'm the idiot, let me try and understand your basic premise.
When global oil prices are $70, US producers sell globally at $70.
When global oil prices are $120, US producers will choose to sell their oil domestically at $70?
Are you familiar with arbitrage?
@ArizonaRanger03@owenjonesjourno I can't write an essay in reply, because I don't pay for Twitter.
Your starting premise is basically true but you've leaped to false simplified conclusions. Supply security is improved since 1973 and can smooth disruptions but pricing remains coupled to global oil prices.
@ArizonaRanger03@owenjonesjourno The steps taken since 1973 help with shortages but not price shocks. You're trying to oversimplify a globally traded commodity.
We have evidence for this already. If US is insulated from global energy prices, why did US crude oil spike 50% when the Ukraine-Russia war began?
@ArizonaRanger03@owenjonesjourno US consuner oil prices are fully tied to global prices.
US business les and consumers would face the same issues as counties globally. The ooil companies would benefit, the US economy would see a severe shock and stagnation.
@matthayesthfc The club don't let people sell their season ticket seats before the match sells out. Why would they?
Will open if/when the match sells out.
