ah so you dont know the difference between having the "right" to buy petroleum-based products and profiting from petroleum-based products? yes the soldiers of the Western world have fought hard for the rights of average citizens to buy petroleum-based products. but the average salary of a US soldier deployed in Iraq is still $28k a year, while the average US Senator makes over $200k a year (for life, without kickbacks) for sending that soldier down the path of an IED.
