It’s in the interest of the USA that the strait not be opened. The USA should sink all ships in the strait.
>>
hormuz strait should just be permanently closed. too problematic, you can always use another strait or build another one.
>>
>how do global markets work?
resource scarcity pushes prices up worldwide due to excess global demand. the asians will attempt to get elsewhere and this will raise the price.
unless you want to pay $6 for gas you probably want it to reopen

There is no international trade without the USA allowing it by not actively sabotaging the sea lanes. All nations must be on board for the global supply chain to function. Any disruption no matter how small is catastrophic. One bad actor can ruin it for everyone. The USA never signed the Paris Declaration Respecting Maritime Law. Article I, Section 8, Clause 11 of the US Constitution authorizes Congress to grant letters of Marque and Reprisal.

>muh global market!

There’s no need for a global market when everyone else is dead. Billions in the global south will perish after we sabotage international shipping.

That's convenient because you can't do shit about it either way, you lost tranny
>>
>>533926132
We can sink ships or confiscate them.

>>533925212
>3%
thats bullshit, 20% goes to europe
>>
>>533927405
Source? Google claims 4-8%.

These threads are always such a collection of retarded ideas. So you think the buyer distribution in the oil market will stay the same if this supply disappears? Rich countries will take their share from poorer countries elsewhere, and the price will rise for everyone. But the oil market isn't really the focus of the deliberations in the white house anyway. Their decisions are geared towards keeping the petrodollar alive, and that only works if they get the strait open, and preferably yesterday.
>>
>>533928261
Norway and Russia will supply enough oil for all of Europe and Asia? I don’t think so.
>>
>>533925391
Lol.
Fuck off, you stupid greaseball.
>>
>>533928536
You lack even the most basic reading comprehension skills. Rich countries will raise the price they offer on the market until oil traders redirect their deliveries to them. Poor countries will receive less because they cannot afford a price increase. That's simply how a market works. Btw strait of malacca status?
>>
>>533925541
We don't need to sabotage anything, just let the niggers run free.
>>
>>533925212
CLOSE THE STRAITS
FUCK CHYNA
FUCK INDIA
HAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

There will be no market after we sabotage international shipping resulting in billions dead.
>>
>>533928884
There are still plenty of reserves, and all western governments have announced they will release their strategic reserves. The real price shock will come if no solution is found before these reserves are depleted. Then we have to buy in a market with constant demand and 20% less supply.

So trump is going to nationalize your oil industry? That sounds pretty antisemitic.
>>
>>533925212
agreed.

>>533929523
Don't care what a little brown monkey says, they don't want to end up like Iran.
>>533929524
Absolutely.
>>
>>533929544
How can that be considered an own? Nobody in the world is more affected by energy price increases than you guys. Because nobody uses as much per capita.
>>
>>533925391
If we (WE) are the ones selling to make a profit then thats a good thing.
>>
>>533929902
How much money have you invested in the oil industry? Furthermore, your country only has one essential export commodity, and that is the USD.
>>
>>533925212
New cope?
>>533925541
This is an old cope
>>
>>533929838
So it's still open? It must hurt to always be wrong.
>>
>>533929601
>Nationalize
Not necessarily, you just can't have any. This is a bipartisan issue, even.
>>
>>533930179
This amounts to expropriation. Good luck trying to justify the unconstitutional expropriation of your country's most powerful industry in court.
>>
>>533929868
I'd imagine it affects you more, since you are paying $10 per gallon.
>>
>>533930070
> How much money have you invested in the oil industry?
None but ill soon be able to fomo in $100k in a few weeks. Hopefully trump holds off on nuking tehran and bandar abbas before then. Also, usd is the only thing we export because you jews are even worse than us in balancing a budget. Enjoy us hyperinflating it to give out gibs….oh wait the oil money will pay for that…. nevermind. :^)

These are mainly taxes that could be cut if things get bad. But even every burger flipper here earns $60,000 a year, so we have plenty of room to raise prices. And in an emergency, everyone here can live without a car. Most people here only use their cars for convenience anyway
>>
>>533929174

Other than aviation, india will probably convert to cooking oil/bio fuel diesel and back to ox cart, etc. And most of their communities are 15 min style anyway.

China is truly fucked, as is Europe.
I wouldn't be suprised to see some countries going steampunk with coal.
>>
>>533930721
This only applied to crude oil; gasoline and diesel were sold at world market prices. Furthermore, oil producers suffered little damage at the time. However, should a law be passed that causes them significant economic harm, they will invoke the fifth amendment (takings clause) in court.
>>
>>533930721
Oh, and not to forget. You're only no longer dependent on imports because you lifted the crude oil export ban in 2015, which led to new investments. If you reinstate it, your oil industry will shrink back to a level where you need imports.
