@dimyttt1780 4 года назад

@lhpoetry 4 года назад

Mexico has quite a bit of oil...

@angelgallegos199 4 года назад

@Joshua N. Ajang: No. it’s actually a very common misconception. The one thing Mexican politicians can be somewhat forgiven after all their corruption is that they’ve always been weary of the U.S.A. America is much stronger and wealthier than Mexico so Mexican policy has been to put strong nationalism in its people and to not ask the U.S for anything. If anything, NAFTA was an American thing that the U.S invited Mexico in. Same with the drug war. The U.S. ask Mexico for help and has provided loans for military equipment (loans not gifts, Mexico has repaid everything back).

@angelgallegos199 4 года назад

@Moon Raker: Mexico didn’t built the wall. Most Mexicans actually don’t give a smelly shit about the wall. Mexicans got offended because Trump wants our tax money to pay another country’s project. If the wall is built on Mexican soil by Mexican workers being paid in pesos then we Mexicans support using our taxes. Also Mexican immigration is down 90% since 2001. Since 2010, more people go to Mexico than immigrate out. Educate yourself a little.

When there was flaura and fauna in the north, the earth was around 700ppm but hey, why bring facts into it. (hide the decline,,,) And should I mention that the earths co2 levels ALWAYS followed the earths temp? Again, why bring facts into it.

My understanding of history and “control of well” issues is the largest and worst spill was in the early 1900’s in California. It was before the invention of a Blowout Preventer (Tree). From the pics and the public records I’ve seen, it developed a huge lake of Oil and was 25+ years to seep back into the ground. Now the land restored itself and growth has returned to normal.

Think about how much petroleum the World consumes on a daily basis, and think about how much dead organic material would be needed for such vast quantities. Why haven't we hit peak oil yet? The answer lies in the abiotic process of petroleum. Petroleum comes from the mantle of the Earth and is pushed up towards the crust.

@stafer3 5 лет назад

@@HerrXenon_ Pro tip: Whenever you think one variable can explain whole system as complex as international relations, just scrap it and say you are wrong, it saves time. Oil is just one factor. Just think for a moment about your own choices. How much of your choices are influence by money, how much by your family, your social circles, your political views, by advertisement, etc. You don’t make your choice solely on money calculation. You don’t just take job with higher salary, if such job is viewed as undesirable by your family or friends. You take different influences into account. So why would you simplify countries that are collections of millions of other individuals, all influenced by their own factors, to simple statement about oil explaining everything. Why isn’t Canada in state of political unrest or in war? Why isn’t Norway? Easy answers are so simplistic that they don’t hold any meaningful value.

@@renaultleakingagain7639 Yes, that‘s true, I would just like people not stopping there but continue working with that factor. For example when politicians make decisions they also think about threat. Threat consists of two factors. Potential, if country is strong or weak. And attitude “we are getting stronger, and when we get more power than you, we will destroy you”. Country with such attitude will obviously get more “love” from their rivals than country that wants to be friendly. Just by adding this one factor, and having two factors to consider 1. country with oil 2. country that’s antagonistic towards other country. You get much more accurate picture what will happen.

@@KikogamerJ2 what do you mean these people? If you’re referring to cartels then that has nothing to do with the US, as they are sending drugs into the US. The US no longer funds jihadists unless they have the same current interests. If you refer to the countries themselves excluding Iran, the US couldn’t just stop sending money to the countries cause it would receive international backlash and US foreign policy is to aid less capable countries. It’s like a Marshall plan but for many many more countries and much much smaller quantity. The US wants to militarily interfere with the cartels in Mexico but the government doesn’t let them. A chunk of their country is controlled by them so it’s not surprising.

This video makes me think that life might not have advanced this far without the oil and coal coal supply we have from stuff that died millions of years ago. I’m sure not all habitable planets with intelligent life have fossil fuel reserves preventing them to advance in technology to leave that planet. I think oil reserves are key to passing a great filter.

@hexfix8887 2 года назад

That's an interesting theory... one I hadn't considered before. Makes sense though.

@kumardigvijaymishra5945 2 года назад

On other habitable planets, there might be plenty of hydrogen gas or any inflammable gas or even coal.

@1370802 2 года назад

If you dig deeper, what you’re really saying is that civilizations need reliable energy. This may not be from oil. For example, if we lived on Venus, we would all be using solar energy since it’s closer to the sun. In fact, someone in the Victorian era could’ve created a solar powered steam engine with their technology. They would just need a large magnifying glass to focus sunlight onto the water instead of burning coal. We can’t do that here because the sun isn’t bright enough, but on Venus it’s different. That’s just an example though, so other planets could have other energy sources.

@fnamelname9077 2 года назад

These kind of videos are a marvellous rebuke to the criticism of "mainstream western media". Everything in the West is "media" - newspapers, tv, books, and videos like this. If you consume a balanced selection of all these, you get a pretty good idea of things. Far from all countries in the world have this privilege. Also, the government which arose in Iran after the revolution was not a "republic" other than in name.
