That's why the USA is the richest place on the planet in GDP, even with hordes of illegal low value immigrants and all sorts of dopey ideas: <The other side, as you might expect was... this is NOT like WWII; free market; oil companies have the right to make as much money as possible.ake as much money as possible>

Shareholders of oil companies will love it. Anyone could buy shares if they liked and get a piece of the action.

People invest in the USA [as I have done] because they are allowed to actually make some money there by investing in great stuff which everyone around the world wants to buy.

Too many grotty little countries rob anyone who does anything useful so they don't bother. The USA does too, but not as badly. They even allow dividends to be paid without being taxed [profits have already been taxed at exorbitant rates in the USA].
