I want you to know that I agree with you that supply and demand will effect the price of oil, but not to the level we see today. Supply and demand is responsible for the fluctuation of the price vrs gold.
BTW thanks for the civil debate, even though I don’t expect either of us will change our mind. This is what every ADULT should be able to do without immature insults.

Yeah oil is in demand, but when you use oil, its gone. Even if I use my gold for jewelry, I can have it remade in to something else. It is also a super conductor used in electrical components, but it always can be reused.
If you compare the price of oil against currency, you hide the picture, because the price of oil against gold has remained relatively consistent. So ultimately you have to assume, that it is the devalued dollar or currency is the problem.

6000 years of history shows people value it, and we could turn petroleum into the cheapest of all things.
It would be like trying to say seawater is money. It’s value is based on false scarcity, and with new technologies, it’s value could be destroyed over night. You’re just another Marxist that wants to call oil money and say everybody owns it rather than the people who actually own the rights, and work towards delivering it to market.

“Gold and silver are universal currency”
Only to an extent that people want them. By that logic and oil are a universal currency. If you have followed gold prices over the last few decades it has been up and down versus a basket of currencies. The big driver for gold isn’t RP fans buying it up… it’s India becoming wealthier – gold is traditional for all those Indian weddings – 85% of gold is used for jewellery!

No offense Deroatizer but have you taken a chance to read even a bit of the constitution?? You know that little piece of paper that has kept us free for oh i dont know maybe 200 plus years…If you have read it then you would know that our govt is currently wiping their bums with it now. Matters not who we vote in if we have no constitution,maybe you can see now why many people like RP!

Are you saying that all currency is backed by a consumable commodity, that once it is consumed is gone? I understand that trading a commodity like oil for the dollar establishes the dollars worth in that market, but ultimately the dollar’s value is measured in gold and silver. Gold and silver are universal currency, that is why they were chosen in the first place.
You will see this when we finally pay back our debt to China and others, they will ask for payment in gold and or silver.

“ALL CURRENCIES are backed by the dollar”
LOL no.. they aren’t… while many countries hold a lot of US currency in their treasury holdings – that is not as much as you think…. and they certainly aren’t tied to the US dollar in any meaningful way…
currencies are tied to the economy they represent… so for example the AUD has doubled in value against the USD and (almost) EUR in the last decade because a worldwide demand for resources has created a lot of demand for AUD dollars

I was not suggesting any such thing, merely providing a philosophical counterpoint, so that your words did not go unchallenged, as I found them to be ill conceived.

I’m only trying to show them they are useless tools, so that they might become of some use, because; ‘the harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.’
ALRIGHT, maybe its a very negative comment, but I’m not compelled to remove the comment, because; I still feel the message conveyed is realistic.
