With a nice self correcting dip, crazy that it spiked like that for 6 months.
It was a shit time for many reasons. It's hard to believe that it was only 7 years after 9/11, when oil was below $20/brl and that was before the fracking boom.
I mean think about how much energy is used in a war, the fuel needed for logistics, for vehicles, supply chains, that's before even thinking about the cost in human lives and medical costs that entails. How do you pay for that besides taxing energy?
We could look at the slowing down of oil production, and the shuttering of the XL pipeline, in the US as preparation for war by progressives instead of a push to green energy. Now that's a good conspiracy.
