If oil is no longer in demand it will trigger the biggest mass migration from the middle east to the west the world has ever seen. These countries import 90% of their food, food which they pay for with oil income.
- UniversalBlue 10y agoYeah, because we need more "refugees". As if the ones we already got haven't caused enough damage.
