    It’s a reflection of Hollyweird. We must overcome them with our celebrations. We have World Youth Day, March for Life, Marian processions etc. Thats why I don’t participate in Halloween. We have EWTN, Catholic radio. Gotta get in their faces.

    Wouldn’t be caught dead at cheap trash like that!


    All joking aside, isn’t it infinitely outclassed by a funeral party retreating to a nearby hostelry and having a few sandwiches, a few pints and revelling over the memories of the person they have just buried? I suppose I’m hoping I will be caught dead at such an event!

    Because they are artificially keeping prices lower now than the real market price of production and delivery, they cannot keep doing that for long. In your country, they are releasing strategic oil reserves; Biden did the same. But those reserves are meant for situations like war or natural disasters not for manipulating the market because of political mistakes and starting wars.

    Your total reserves are around 750 million barrels. Before the war started, the reserves were at about 500 million barrels, and below 200 million the military would never allow further use because that amount is reserved for their own needs. Around 7–10 million barrels are being released weekly.

    The U.S. imports about 10% of its oil from the Middle East by tanker; the rest is imported from Canada and Mexico. However, oil companies are not state-owned, and prices depend on the global oil market.

    Here in Europe, governments removed part of the taxes, and Australia did as well. But prices are still roughly twice as high. Inflation will spread to food and other necessities, and the government will not have enough money from taxes to keep up with salary increases in the public sector, healthcare, and the welfare system especially in Europe.

    That will lead to unrest. They may raise taxes on private businesses, which would again lead to social unrest.
