Fucking

OIL

nope

you dont get that

private companies get it

what do YOU get

Lowered gas prices

Cause supply and demand

nope, war increases the price of gas

the iraq war caused a massive spike in oil prices

its why venezuela got so complacent actually

so what do you get?

Do you know how quickly we could fuck up Iraq?

GG @ezethral, you just advanced to level 3!

what about it

its not in your interests to fuck them up because it pushes the price of petrol up

squeezes your budget

so what do you personally get

Thank you @royalsponge for your words of wisdom, it was greatly appreciated!

👍🙌

the answer is "you dont actually get anything at all"

youre just giving 20% of your tax dollars away

private companies benefit

if they have overseas business interests

or are defense contractors

its a corporate handout to the most destructive companies in the world

Personally?

from a human life perspective, an infrastructure perspective, a cultural perspective and from a climate change perspective

Climate change?

*plot twist*

the US military is the biggest polluter in the world

I think you mean eastern asia

no i mean the US military

GG @Green Syndicalism, you just advanced to level 20!

The private sector better for the earth!

haha

I like how it compares it to U.S companies and not the thousands of factories in China that made their air so horrible that they need to wear masks to breathe in certain areas
