Agreed......but the only way they can afford to sell it to their citizens at such low prices is if they sell it at such exhorbitant high prices to everyone else.......view this in economic terms and not political terms....view the entire world as one market....the answer obviously is to not buy their oil from them. Do you feel okay paying such high prices knowing you are getting fleeced and being taken advantage of? Are you okay with the major drug companies in the US charging you 400% - 1,000% more for your prescription drug then the price they sell those drugs for an every other country in the world?
Many companies/industries sell their products to the US consumer at unfairly high prices compared to their other customers (read countries). Is this fair? IMO -- all it does is keep adding to the high rise in cost of living in the USA.
Let's use the same logic on US exports and charge less to US citizens for the products we make here then when we ship them overseas.......oh yeah, we don't have any of those products anymore given we pissed away the manufacturing market, the high tech market, the textile market.........
