Question:


If Big US Oil can influence OPEC, would Big US Oil suggest lower production
levels to drive up prices?

In the 70s, a fake oil shortage caused prices to skyrocket.  After it was all
over, and production levels returned to normal, most people realized that Big
US Oil had lied to Americans.  For the sake of boosting prices, Big US Oil put
America through Hell.

Is this about to happen all over again?
