In Canada, Prime Minister Mark Carney was asked, if we have so much oil here in Canada, why are we paying so much for gas because of the strife in the Middle East? The Prime Minister’s answer was basically because oil is a global commodity, so everyone pays the same. He added though, that his government is looking at ways to help Canadians out in some way regarding the high price of gas.
I pondered this response and asked myself this question: “Well, why is oil a “global commodity” anyway?” The answer is it does not have to be this way. Powerful people though, behind the scenes, have made it this way to control the supply and maximize profit. In effect, hold the world hostage and use this control as part of a much bigger agenda.
The world is not the wonderful place I was lead to believe it was as a kid. Everything is contrived and manipulated. There is a quiet master agenda we don’t even want to consider because it will push us out of our comfort zone, even though that comfort zone is pretty uncomfortable right now for many because of economics. But emotion provides powerful leverage that makes it possible to manipulate our perceptions. Ultimately, this is why oil prices are so high. This is the reality about oil…and much more.
