Without oil no shit would've happened here in the first place
Hopefully the United States joins Russia soon. The less we have to rely on that fundamentalist shithole, the better.

It doesn't work if you give it away, we'd have to convert to pesos because our dollar will just crash that hard.

No. The saudi oil monopolies only deal in US currency making us a dominating force economically, and it would bring only inflation if we abandoned our Saudi partners. I highly doubt russia or any other country would even allow something like the Petro dollar to happen if we tried to strike a deal with them because it gives the US such a huge global advantage. Yeah the saudis are pricks but that's no excuse to pass up a good deal.

Or we could just, you know, phase out fossil fuels altogether.
To think Russia could be an oil rich state if they weren't being such cunts and getting sanctioned out the ass.

I think he's joking how it doesn't matter how Russia gets money, it'll primarily go to the Oligarchs.
