If you think US military action in the ME over the last century is entirely to secure access to oil you are too obtuse to have a grown up conversation about this. Geopolitics are far more complex than distilling the world down in to your binary preference. The world is almost entirely grey, black and white may not

Worst case they’ll rebrand it 757 NG and people will calm down.

What, be responsible with our money?!?! How dare you suggest something so preposterous!

Many people view our military forces in the middle east as being “oil subsidies”. Thats simply not true. Sure would have been nice if we could recoup our costs with free oil. God forbid we become involved in Venezuela...

You do realize the high standard of living you speak of is largely due to the availability of cheap consumer goods that are one of the the results of increasing globalization and free trade.

Oh Crosstrek. Still too early in the morning for me I guess.

Would immediately have won every gubernatorial best facial hair competition.

You’re absolutely right.
