Seldom does one hear a seller loudly complaining that he is paid too much for what he sells. An odd situation indeed. Opec does not like the high prices. "Pay me less!! I'm afraid if I charge too much, you might not have enough money in your jeans to continue buying!" It makes me wonder why they don't just arbitrarily set a figure, or if they are so guilt struck with all their money, why they don't simply refund the US the difference? story.news.yahoo.com I also read that Saudi Arabia has completely dismissed pricing oil in Euros. I guess all this is a reward for US even handed policy visa vie Iraq & Israel? And Opec, which consists of a majority of Muslim States, agrees. US global hegemony, especially economic hegemony shows no danger of breaking.
