Is the middle east purposefully trying to bleed our country dry w/skyrocketing oil prices?

It seems if our country cannot be easily destroyed with terrorism or other methods, raising gas prices to extremely high levels seems like the legit way to go.





Why are they so hellbent on destroying America?





Or are they just really concerned about the profit margin, and it's not a question of destroying a country or not?Is the middle east purposefully trying to bleed our country dry w/skyrocketing oil prices?
No. The real reason is Americans are getting poorer and poorer year after year and the worst is yet to come. We have a bunch of uneducated high school dropouts; we have so many so-called college graduates who know nothing about math and science; we have a corrupted education system causing our students having nothing to learn; we have outsourced most of our manufacturing jobs to overseas; we have outsourced more and more of our highly paid white collar jobs to India, China; we have a bunch corrupted politicians in Washington leading this country; we have spent trillions of dollars to fight in Iraq and Afghanstan for nothing, .... As the nation is going down to the drain, the country is getting poorer and poorer, there is no surprise to see we can not afford such high gasoline price while others can, at least other country government has the money to help their people.Is the middle east purposefully trying to bleed our country dry w/skyrocketing oil prices?
No one is trying to ';destroy America'; with oil prices. The US gets only a little over 20% of it's oil from the Middle East. About 40% comes from domestic production, and the rest comes from non-Middle Eastern countries, primarily Canada (yes, Canada).





You need to stop thinking that the US is the only one being affected by the rise in oil prices. Most countries in the world, even those that don't use much oil directly, are affected. Transportation costs have gone up, which means that food costs have gone up, too. Everything made from oil, including plastics, livestock feed, etc., is being affected.





I realize the voice of reason is not what you're looking for, and you're probably going to give the best answer to somebody like ';World War III,'; who sees sinister plots around every corner, but what I said needed to be said anyway.
The question presumes the Middle East controls the world supply of oil. Actually, oil production is more diversified. The problem is one of demand. With the ';westernization';of China, India, and other formerly ';developing'; markets, the demand for oil now far outstrips the supply, and will continue to do so indefinitely. This is just the start.
it goes beyond the middle east, remember, behind every loser is a winner, so who winning with oil ? sure Opec is making money, but remember they are making a premium for every barrel, thats mere pocket change these sheiks are making compared to the Real Winners.... The Worldbank and IMF, they set the price of oil in the financial markets, thats why america depends on foriegn oil, Saudi oil was orchastrated to be denominated in dollars in order to make us dependent thanks to Nixon and Kissinger.


Nixon and Kissinger were props for the worldbank, they are globalist and what our forefather's would call traitor's of our constitution.


I would bet the worldbank is responsible for terrorism, think about it.


whats happening in our country is called globalization, which means in the future, were gonna answer to international laws, not our domestic rules....... read the proof ........

It is speculation that is partly (mostly) to blame for the hellish prices of gas.


The middle eastern nations are against our greedy capitalistic ways ... that is why they are hellbent on destroying us.


But jeez, have you seen Dubai lately? Talk about capitalism and greed at its finest!
It is not just the middle eastern country's, it is speculators from around the world, including Americans who are reaping billions of dollars in investment income off the backs of all of us.
considering the US gets most of its oil from Canada it looks as if you are blameing the wrong place

hey, your starting to see the truth
Speculators.
each time one buys a gallon of gas that is 4.00 dollars going out of this country and 4.00 less dollars less in this country to make mortgage payments next month
Absolutely!
Wow.........I was starting to worry. Its been 10 seconds since the last oil price question.
