Well it may be lame and selfish, but just watch. Unless they have a way to combat loss of jobs with the new plastic. But don’t take my word for it. research it yourself and Look at how many people are employed and effected by by the oil industry. Why do you think theres wars for this shit and its more sought afte than any commodityr??? Lets start really simply, Look at something as simple as cars. Hmmm why are they shutting down Toyota plants in Japan, GM shutting down across N.A. Over 20,000 Jobs have been lost, not to mention the companies they contracted for work who have shut down, layed off people or have gone bankrupt. Oh and Trucking companies who are hired to transport…so on and so on… --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/sticking-it-to-the-oil-companies/149744)._
