Remember the gas 'crisis' in 1973?
My older brother was a Phillips 66 asst manager of a station, and had to goto a meeting in KC right after that all began.
A regional rep told them all that there in fact, was no oil shortage. But rather that all the tankers were standing off-shore waiting for the price to settle where they wanted it. IOW, it WAS the Oil Co's. that set this all up, and blaming others.
I don't suppose certain person's in WDC would have anything to do with this. Just the thing to rattle the sheeples just before elections, huh? Then introduce some miraculous Executive Orders to save the day, and secure the office for more destructions...
Please remember the Nixon saying,
You can fuel some of the people all of the time,
You can fuel all of the people some of the time,
But you can't fuel all of the people all of the time.
Just my $1.49 a gallon worth here.

The most foolish mistake we could make would be to allow the subjected people to carry arms; history shows that all conquerers who have allowed their subjected people to carry arms have prepared their own fall.
