We’ll just release oil from strategic reserves and put the proceeds in some untraceable Middle East bank account then suspend federal gas taxes and pressure states to do the same blowing up state budgets in the process. Both will increase the National debt on top of whatever money we’ll need to feed the industrial weapons complex to maintain this non forever forever war.

My only hope is the Billionaire class is leveraged to the hilt and Congress refuses to bail their asses out like was done for the 2008 housing crisis.
