well you know the rise of home swimming pools correlates with the drop off in Piracy did the one cause the other? the rise of literacy in mexico, correlates with the drop in sea lion poaching Did the one casue the other? Post hoc ergo propter hoc
Here, educate yourself a bit https://www.conservapedia.com/Logical_fallacy specifically https://www.conservapedia.com/Post_hoc_ergo_propter_hoc
I hope you are more rational in your Biz Suit Life
@Dshhh reductio ad absurdum much? Quick...go look that up. So your response is a link to the definition of logical fallacy. Oh boy! You sure showed me 🙄
Do you have a logical explanation behind this sudden price increase or do you simply resort to gaslighting?
@Dshhh They're definitions. Brilliant. Not a lick about things like market dynamics or the politics that influence prices. All you showed me was that you're suffering from mass inserted cranial rectal disease.
@BizSuitStacy ah so now it is ad hominem a most discredited tool you want dynamics? well when was the last year any major oil company payed any taxes? why do they not take advantage of the 7000 oil lease currently on offer? why not include ENORMOUS exogenous costs of the fossil fuel industry. remeber the cigarett tycoons? the ones that said "there is no proof of tobacco being harmnless IN congress... It was then reveals they DID know and were fully informed they were found guilty the same is true for big oil they ARE full informed about the damage their industry has done
you want details??? here they are Fontline has this in detail, from the industry itself, Oil Experts in plenty , many former oil pirates I know you haven't the time but take a look at DENIAL [media=https://youtu.be/QAAbcNl4Lb8]
next part DOUBT [media=https://youtu.be/qMe-BYUIPLU]
last part. Delay [media=https://youtu.be/R8UOJqs5F9Q]
talk to me AFTER you watch these. then make your case with logic, not politics
@Dshhh ohhhh...now you've moved from definitions to PBS climate change videos. Why didn't you just start there? Sure, the evil oil companies are jacking up their prices to order to usher in alternative energy sources. Drive themselves out of business and commit economic suicide. By your reasoning, the tail is wagging the dog. Congratulations. Only a liberal stands on his head and tells us the world is upside down.
@BizSuitStacy I will tak with you again, if you can logically refute what is in the vids a blanket denial of all the information from that source, is small minded
you are afraid you will change you mind if you do watch it.
@Dshhh The current administration has put a ridiculous amount of red tape on those leases they're so quick to point out they're offering. But more importantly, why would they make a long term investment in such an endeavor when they've been told the government plans to basically shut them down? By the way, leases and drilling isn't the issue. They're running at 95% refining capacity. Could they invest in increasing refining capacity? Possibly. Does it make sense when the government has waged war on their industry? Absolutely not.
@Dshhh You've yet to even made a lucid point. You post two links to two definitions, and add some mindless blathering you think will make you sound intelligent.
But the best part of all is you trying to sell the idea that correlation isn't causation. To make your point, you ironically post global warming videos.
Nevermind how illogical it is for oil companies to price their product so high, that people will go seek alternate energy sources. 🙄
