Saudis move up next OPEC meeting in order to f**k us

Seriously, why are we friends with these despots? They're now moving up the next OPEC meeting because they're distraught that oil prices have "dropped" to $67 a barrel.So they're going to meet to artificially prop up prices - OPEC would like the price to stay above $80, only four times what we paid years ago. Again, why are we friends with these corrupt, illegitimate regimes? We saved the Saudis' collective ass from Saddam Hussein in 1991. We let them off the hook after a group of their citizens decided to take down the World Trade Center and attack the Pentagon. We listened to their BS when only a few months ago they said the market must dictate prices. And now we're going to put up with this crap when we're on the verge of an international economic meltdown? Saudi Arabia isn't our friend. OPEC isn't our friends. It's time we realized that, and acted accordingly.

Oh, and Kuwait (whose ass we saved too) and Iraq are members of OPEC too. A lot of good that did us.
