Saudi sights set on US shale at crucial OPEC meeting
Riyadh (AFP) - OPEC's biggest crude producer Saudi Arabia will have its sights set on the upstart US shale oil business at a crucial cartel meeting to debate possible output cuts on Thursday.
Analysts say the kingdom is content to see shale oil producers -- and even some members of the cartel -- suffer from low prices and will resist pressure to reduce output and shore up the cost of oil.
A barrel of crude has plunged by about one third in value since June to around $80 in an increasingly competitive market.
Saudi Oil Minister Ali al-Naimi was silent about his government's intentions Monday as he arrived in Vienna ahead of the OPEC gathering.

1. This is potentially good news
The only negative of these lower prices is that it may drive new car buyers away from more fuel efficient vehicles. Other than that, I hope the lower prices put a world of hurt on the companies that are ravaging the North American countryside.

Have they seen this? http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2014/nov/25/obama-amnesty-obamacare-clash-businesses-have-3000/\\
Under the president’s new amnesty, businesses will have a $3,000-per-employee incentive to hire illegal immigrants over native-born workers because of a quirk of Obamacare.
President Obama’s temporary amnesty, which lasts three years, declares up to 5 million illegal immigrants to be lawfully in the country and eligible for work permits, but it still deems them ineligible for public benefits such as buying insurance on Obamacare’s health exchanges.
Under the Affordable Care Act, that means businesses who hire them won’t have to pay a penalty for not providing them health coverage — making them $3,000 more attractive than a similar native-born worker, whom the business by law would have to cover

Liberals always show their true colors, (racism). The US has more environmental protections than almost any country in the world, yet they want other nations to destroy the environment instead of American companies making a little profit right here at home.

Actually this may get them even more agitated than normal as well (once they come down off the current moral high ground they believe they have staked out over Ferguson): http://fusion.net/story/30263/chuck-schumer-obamacare-comments-aca/
Shuck You Chumer sells out "The One", questions timing. DUmmies will be left to wonder, why, Shuck, why??

The guy that leaked the memo that busted the Bonnie Fwank, Chris Dodd created and protected housing bubble that caused the recession that gave us great leader Obomber. The trap/plan had been in the works since the red lining Carter days just waiting for the right time to spring it.

Said same. I have great links off line from that era. Democratics spent lots of time talking down the economy and bashing Bush. Shuck You, the man who broke Indy Mac. For the uninformed on Shuck You this is a great article:

I've always believed that the media and politicians can crash an economy, but they can't raise it back up.
