Ok Jeff. Your right about whatever it is your talking about. At least your not going on about Holdomor, I guess.


Meanwhile from the business news, which has a greater demand to be reality based as money’s at stake:


The sidelining of U.S. shale means consumers around the world may face a winter of higher fuel prices. Russia has threatened to block oil sales to countries supporting a European Union price cap, and the United States is winding down releases from emergency oil stockpiles that helped cool energy inflation.
U.S. shale production costs are soaring and there is no sign that tight-fisted investors will change their demands for returns rather than investment in expanding drilling.’

Energy hungry Europe can’t look to U.S. shale to fill any OPEC gap

The Shale industry always appeared to be similar to our war market plays. More or less a Ponzi scheme that was never able to deliver on its claims fir potential profitability just over the next hill. It follows similar patterns of war salesmanship. Greeted as Liberators, democracy flowering in the desert, girls going to schools again, etc. the real play seems to have been moving merchandise and getting lucrative DOD contracts.

Europeans are in for a rude awakening, I’m afraid, in the coming cold months with regard to America’s LNG supply assurances.
