I don't see how any African-American, with any inkling of history, can say that you don't have the right to live your life how you want to live your life. No one should be telling you who you should love, no one should be telling you who you should be spending the rest of your life with.

Oil now, as a result of the Saudi production, is priced so low that there are not going to be new fracking investments made.

When the costs of production are so much more than they can end up getting for the oil, they just stop producing and stop paying their loans.
