    No more so than Brent or WTI, and I don't know that I'd call it big.

    It could be, but the price hasn't increased nearly that much.

    She's got a very simplistic, and wrong take on socialism.

    You appear to have a very superficial grasp of these ideologies.

    Its like you don't understand they are just different shades of the same socialist fail.

    Look it up. Hitler was not a socialist. Reams have been was written about it. He was the enemy of socialism, but like Trump he invented his own definitions and so tricked alot of people.

    Google scrubs things and leads you to biased sources.

    No, and it does not change the fact that the Nazi's were socialists.

    Margot doesn't understand much. He responses generally are some form of "look it up, I know, but I don't have to tell you". I'm still waiting on the $8/barrel increase in OPEC crude since the sanctions on Venezuela were instituted.

    Why would I look at the past 30 days? The embargo is less than two weeks old.

    I have always posted links, but I'm on my phone now. Expect wild fluctuations in the ppb.

    Chavez's efforts towards education and healthcare were making a difference until the collapse of the oil price.. VZ was in trouble and had neglected all that for decades.

    The middle class was almost nonexistent because the elite around the president took ALL the oil revenues.
