I hope every "American" and "Canadian" is burned to ashes along with every single relative because of their crimes against the ethnic European HUMAN race
Leo Gomez
Yes, but now there's going to be significant period of time needed to regain energy independence, which will be necessary to do... but by the time we start trying to do that, our economy will already be utterly annihilated.
Yup, and now we see WHY they wanted independence from Russian oil.
Dylan Barnes
Also, checked.
Jayden Green
>Yes, but now there's going to be significant period of time needed to regain energy independence oh no oil prices will rise for like 6 months, it's ogre
Ryder Rogers
No... no you don't understand. The petrodollar will collapse because the United States doesn't control any of the oil outside of it's borders. When the petrodollar collapses, the dollar will become worthless. When the dollar becomes worthless, we won't be able to afford to rebuild the pipelines and get our energy sector back up and running.
Hunter James
As it stands the United States is already well beyond the brink economically because our debt to GDP ratio is such that we can no longer pay down the debt. It's impossible.
When the petrodollar collapses, we'll have rampant hyperinflation the likes of which would make Weimar Germany gasp.
Kayden Morgan
The only way out of the hole that America is in is to - at least - implement the same economic policies that this guy did.
>No... no you don't understand. The petrodollar will collapse because the United States doesn't control any of the oil outside of it's borders. it controls the entire middle east but whatever
> When the petrodollar collapses, the dollar will become worthless. good
>When the dollar becomes worthless, we won't be able to afford to rebuild the pipelines and get our energy sector back up and running. americans are gonna do that, fucking pay them in tacos or something
Carter Lee
>it controls the entire middle east No, we don't. Not anymore. We pulled out, remember? >good okay, based. >pay them in tacos or something can't pay them in tacos when there's no food
Andrew Watson
>can't pay them in tacos when there's no food why would you have no food, do you water your crops with dollars or what? america is a net exporter of food, just pay the field workers in tacos as well, if you're so monkey tier you can't run an economy just go back to feudalism and sell food in exchange of work
Hudson Robinson
Russia controls 2/3 of the world's ammonium nitrate, like I said in OP. That's a vital component in fertilizer which is necessary for high-yield crops. When we don't have any fertilizer, we won't have any high-yield crops. When we don't have high-yield crops, we won't be a net exporter of food anymore.
There will be food shortages.
Joseph Fisher
Thorium reactors niggers.
Kayden Garcia
>Russia controls 2/3 of the world's ammonium nitrate, like I said in OP. That's a vital component in fertilizer which is necessary for high-yield crops. how have you been managing so far?
anyways if that's really a problem just use waste for fertilizer, if that doesnt work import from elsewhere, if that doesnt work import food from elsewhere, if that doesnt work some people will starve until you meet the food supply, you'll be fiiiine
Jacob Johnson
10 years before being put online.
Jonathan Williams
also 80% of americans are obese not overweight, OBESE
so you can last several years without any food at all, on top of that if you factor the landwhale's extra calloric intake and all the food wastage you have enough to feed several billion people, again you'll be fiiine, if you're too monkey tier to manage an economy pay everyone in tacos and you'll get your pipelines up and running in no time
Elijah Russell
>We don't need oil. >The men who sell oil need you dependent.
Logan White
>how have you been managing so far? What do you mean? We've been using fertilizer made with Russian ammonium nitrate.
>just use waste for fertilizer We already do, but waste fertilizer doesn't yield the same results as ammonium nitrate based fertilizers do. You'll get pretty good crops on a small scale, but on a large scale, in order to produce as much food as we do now, you NEED that ammonium nitrate. Cow shit and scraps won't do it.
This is a fair point. If we kept all our crop yields to ourselves, took all of the garbage out of them and tightened our belts a bit, we might make it, but we would still be in Weimar levels of poverty.
Levi Allen
America is truly fucked. Canada not only has oil, but most of it's power come from hydro. Europe used to get it's power from nuclear, but they elected hippies who turned it into a meme continent running on solar panels and windmills.
Jacob Taylor
On the bright side, keeping our crop yields to ourselves would also mean that Africa would probably depopulate due to starvation since we aren't feeding them anymore.
Christian Stewart
Unless the anglosphere poke the bear in such a way, forcing Russia to attack them and end those advantages in a conflict (that would explain the recent actions and escalation by the US and NATO), it is their only option now and I think the anglos will take that measure. Western media already talking about assassination of Putin and high-ranking officials.
