But they gain monopoly through this. We already know about the "regulatory capture" phenomena. And how big businesses eliminate competition through regulation.
There is a term for it: Crony Capitalism.
So in this situation, the oil guys would benefit from it, if you regulate out the other competition. Like blocking Russian oil (which the USA is already in conflict with), it could be a political move.
But I don't know, since then you legitimize the green energy, which they have no interest doing, neither the US nor Russia.
If there is truth in it, then why don't they just tell it. If it's not then why do they invent such elaborate hoax (with many plot holes) to further their agenda?
well...I've worked in the oil industry...my brother was a petroleum engineer and my other brother was a geophysicist...reckon they have any idea what they are talking about...
or is it a SEEECRET 'oil guy' plot?
I used to invest into oil until 2008. After that just nothing made sense anymore. There was just too much deception, and that is not profitable. The geo-politics, which is the main indicator of oil was just totally confusing to me. So I didn't even cared to do it afterwards. The profits weren't even that great and the difficulty was too high. It's like trading the EUR/USD, good luck figuring out what the hell is going on there behind the scenes.
