    sure - from where do you get your oil? And if you don't use oil (in any way, shape or form) I salute you and wish to subscribe to your news letter. Otherwise this is a pot/kettle situation unless you own a dinosaur ranch and harvest your own oil.

    I think the point is more the protectionism that goes with that industry and the lengths the countries listed are prepared to go to to maintain their oil profits.

    I'm not sucking up to Tuttle, but to be honest I think in an intellectual race he has "lapped" you a few times. :yes:

    I don't know @Tuttle well but I've known @BizarroEnt for years and trust me she's worth listening to. Abrasive, even a little aggressive at times, but wonderful with it.

    Since turtle is much more about alternative faux facts that oldfella wishes were true it is probably true from his perspective.

    well I know you mean "republicans" in general since I don't have a gun, wish Hillary would break in :D and I don't own a pickup since my two Volkswagens are plenty of power. True I have a penis and if anybody is strong enough to lift it (good luck) they can take it! :yes:

    And no bizarro no liberals have hurt my feelings - but their attempts are very entertaining, if ultimately futile.

    Hey man, honestly, it's a waste of breath.

    You're talking to the same fellow that proclaims support of "socialism" while singing the praises of the "workers' paradise" of Venezuela. [Notice though he never once moved to that paradise of virtues, Venezuela, as any True Believer might.]

    All while scowling at those who exploit the masses as he sits in the fat luxurious comforts of a capitalist country (one richer even than the US), while typing on a computer designed and developed and built by capitalists, as he depends on an internet network designed and developed solely by capitalists etc. etc.

    Heads might explode throughout the few shithole socialist countries still clinging to life if this fella ever expressed an internally consistent set of values or circumstances.

    ^Dunno. Is there another socialist shithole extant that might welcome fat rich phonies?

    PS: nice TLDR! Reading my four (4) words was a struggle for you, eh? : D Did you like those two about jerking off on a plane?

    For the record, @Tuttle is one of the folks around here whose posts are so dumb, so dripping with Republican tribalism, and so contrary to reality, that he's not even worth responding to. Kinda like @The Flashlight but less entertaining.

    Definitely not a Republican. At best I find the GOP slightly less unacceptable than Dems.

    Though most of my answers should be quite predictable because they spring from the same, consistent, libertarian-ish principles. Sometimes, like e.g. advertising for lawyers or pharma drugs, I'll defend glaring exceptions to opinions o/w deeply rooted in principle (in this case, free speech). And I'll nearly always start off by questioning 'conventional wisdom.'

    Dunno about him being the dimmest bulb we've ever had. Just seems to like trolling liberals.

    If Paladin and Federal Farmer had an assbaby, it would be the personal Tuttle has adopted for this board. :borg:

    It was the name of Hawkeye Pierce's imaginary childhood friend who died jumping from a chopper in Korea, if that helps?

    So, I support Paladin and FF's right to adopt mentally candicapped children.

    They can do that in California. :yes:

    Bullshit.

    This is an issue that requires co-ordinated action at all levels to put in place alternatives and achieve systemic change. Demanding that individuals solve it for themsleves is all kinds of stupid.

    Wait, what? Surely you can provide a link to the post where I referred to Venezuela as anything of the sort.

    Or maybe that came from the same place that you get your alternative science. :moon2:

    I'm not sure but he might have meant me. I vaguely recall mentioning Venezuela at some point, probably in reference to it being safer than the US or something.
