Bring on the "Rust" depletion.

I know a lot of unemployed oil workers that would like to see it.

[AirlinePilot]

The way I read Matt's stuff lately is that he is saying Rust will add to the problem. I dont think he is going off message, just pointing out another issue which we appear to be screwing up. There is plenty of good evidence to suggest things all around the oil patch have been put on hold for at least a while. None of that is positive from a production standpoint and lowered revenues means further delayed progams and money for infrastructure.

short...a little commonsense here. Any reduction in demand if any will be inconsequential and very brief.....an undeveloped but developing 5 out of 6 billion of this planet's population will ensure that. Even that should be evident to you.

I'm inclined to agree with you there although I reckon we will have a few recessions to go with a terminal depression being the killer. I think the Chinese are being worked on to keep this leaking tub afloat. Kinda bizarre that a (nominally) communist state should come to capitalism's rescue!!!

Actually I disagree with you. From my experience with Chinese corporates, they are desperate to get what few crumbs they can off the table. Chinese boardrooms are invariably headed up by Western experts and I can tell you now, much of China is essentially a front for western capital. The Chinese are as much prisoners of global capital as we are, even more so in fact as pay parity between the West and China is epically vast.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('RedStateGreen', '

[Nefarious]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('mos6507', '

nefarious; just curious

can you give us any more details on what you've been doing?
