I don't get it. The Arabs are pumping the stuff out as fast as the pumps will go. They are at full tilt. I'm not saying that economic migrants can't pump oil, I'm sure they can, and I'm sure there are plenty working for Arab and Western oil companies already doing it. But it's hardly the point.
World oil price rises are NOT caused by deliberate non-supply. Who would sit on oil with prices now ten times what they were maybe 15 years ago? The high prices are caused by demand rising faster than expected, and faster than it's physically possible to supply. The growth of China and the relentless thirst of the West are the culprits.
What of the Arabs? "Don't blame us, we only work here" would be a fair response.

This is neither a question, nor a sentence. In any case, pal, it's their oil.
