You know how gas is cheap right now? That means there's a lot of people in oil and gas out of work.

What goes around comes around, soon enough gas will be $4 a gallon again.

Motherfuckers will start another war just to make sure. Mark my words...

New page same story
FYI anyone interested in helping and thanks to those who have. I know it's tight times for everyone. Definitely appreciated if you can help. I started a freelance sales & marketing job last week and though its only commission based on sales I am trying.

I have a GoFundMe account to help through rough times

There was a time in my life not very long ago where I would have never thought about doing something like this, but this is not that time. We are having a tough time, me being out of work for the last 13 months. I am very confident a new position is on the horizon, but not before we are without a place to live. We need some help. If you can help I will be forever indebted and I do plan to pay back in full over time. Here goes nothing.

If anyone wants the link, let me know by PM and I'll message it to you. I don't want to post my name up here for the public to see, so if you want please drop me a message. Thanks very much

There will be an inflection point where oil and gas prices will rise enough that it makes sense to turn the taps on again. Then they'll need all the oil and gas people they can get and it will be boom times again.

...and if it starts to take too long, the major shareholders of defense companies and oil companies will support- bribe- war hawk politicians who will look for excuses to get America into yet another 'conflict' to 'fight for freedom' and pump up the prices of stocks in both industries.

Impoverishing the middle class and murdering service men and women will be merely costs of doing business. Costs borne by those who don't have millions of shares in defense companies or the oil patch... so why not?

It's not cynical IF THIS IS HOW IT REALLY WORKS.

This concludes today's lesson in geopolitics.

Just to touch on this one.

Ruby and I are in Australia. You cannot just volunteer to join up. Its a really hard career to get into here. Its extremely well paid with great tax free pensions that are paid no matter what you may earn in your civilian life "if" you decide to leave. We have a smallish standing army that is expensive to maintain so they dont hire stupid.

We also dont do all the "thank you for your service" crap that the yanks do. They choose to apply for the job. If they are one of the few that pass they are on there way to lotsa $ for minimal risk. Most of the actual fighting is done by the SAS and other elite units not the general soldier.

I do agree with you on the oil. Lets face it this war on terror thats destroying cities, countries and creating terrorists is about oil.
Still amazes me that nearly all the pilots on 9/11 were from Saudi Arabia yet you lot invaded Afghanistan....and flew all the Bin Lardin royal family out of America before the FBI etc could interview them during the shut down of the whole air space - Good old Bush lookin after his friends and business partners.

The first 2 paragraphs are spot on thats the way australia rolls,matter of fact i tried to join up to fight any war that was coming our way back in 88/89 roughly but got knocked back cos of a hearing loss in one ear and when that happened it was like a fuck you to authorities and i went off the rails for the next ten years
The last paragraph i couldnt really care less about theres to many conspiracies thrown around for me not to think the whole thing is a fucken circus.
Albeit the fact that i dont like how many ppl and lives have been destroyed along the way...i still remember 9/11 what i was doing at the time quite clearly...

Im very thankful for the ones who have fought and seen action...im not showing thanks to the ones back home here who hide behind training excercises all the time and leave as soon as they have completed their "service" grab a gold pension and parade like they have seen the world when they havnt fired a bullet in a real life scenario.
I am very thankful to my grandfathers who helped keep our country free and the american soldiers who have fought to help keep our nation free of dictatorship and filthy communists etc

Yes, a truly professional army- and the bargain that your nation won't send you into harm's way just to pad the balance sheets of oil companies and defense contractors- or corrupt politicians.
