So if we get into a war right now with Iran will it increase the price of oil to a whopping $10 bucks a barrel?

Flip Yr Wig posted:Got it. Didn't understand that futures contracts happen in one day bursts like this. I think they've been running for a month or so, but this is just the last day and everybody had been speculating on a price rise and hadn't actually planned on buying it, and now are panic selling. So like ebay flippers sitting on a garage full of worthless poo poo they planned on flipping, except with the oil market.

I remember there was an ask/tell type thing with a guy who went to oil school or something. He and his buddy had purchased a used oil well - basically they idea is companies only go for the easiest to get oil out of the ground and move somewhere else the moment the flow starts to decrease. This dude was like: I'ma pump out the rest and make millions!! Wonder how that guy ever made out

Charliegrs posted:If oil is in the negative does that mean gas will be negative? Will they pay us to fill up our tanks? Serious answer is no, the actual cost of materials is only a portion of the price of gas. But since there might be some storage space left for gasoline, there's a real possibility of cranking out more gas while that's cheap .80 to .90 a gallon is a real possibility.

That is what people thought about dickheads like Dylann Roof and here we are. Don't make the mistake of minimizing the danger these assholes and the tenets of their death cult pose to the rest of us. Look at that loving neckbeard James whatever in Charlottesville who jumped in his Challenger and mowed a bunch of people down. They are cowards looking for opportunities to feast like lions.
