Russia-higher price for its oil.
China-will supply cash & technical expertise in rebuilding Iran.

He predicts the Strait of Hormuz will eventually open allowing flow oil. That benefits both Iran & Washington. They just have to work out a face saving agreement. Asia hope for for a sooner than later opening as its oil supply is dire.

OFW because the inflation is about to set in worse than before.

It was pulled.
So I posted again with economic consequences of war.

Sure. Because none of us thought closing off 20% of the world’s oil supply could have economic consequences.

Who makes these decisions? The same people writing 50 tweets overnight?

The fool is neutral to on our side. But the fool covers its behind for all sorts of social mores.

Was the conversation on econ? Or just another chance to bash? Econ will score us a lot more points as of now.
