What They Do Not Want You To Know About the Nigerian Oil Trade
The U.S. consumer buys a lot of oil from Nigeria. How much? Over 500,000 barrels per day. Nigeria is the 6th largest supplier of oil to the U.S.
When U.S. companies found oil in Nigeria, they told the Nigerian people how much better life was going to be for them with the millions of dollars flowing into their country from the sale of oil.
U.S. oil companies could careless about the Nigerian people. They did not care about the welfare of the Nigerian people anymore than U.S. Insurance companies care about the welfare of their members. All that the U.S. oil companies wanted to do was to take the oil as quickly as possible. What most U.S. citizens do not know is that their consumption of oil and gas is killing the average Nigerian.
Worse, big oil executives have known what is happening to Nigeria because of the oil trade for years now, but still they continue to use their Washington lobbyists to delay solar power development.

Business has one purpose and one purpose alone, to maximize profits at any cost.

How many people have the rich Health Insurance companies in America killed because they denied coverage due to a pre-existing condition? How many young people who work in the fast food and restaurant industry in America are not being provided with health care by these greedy insurance companies? How many hard working families, where both couples work, are being charged $700, $900 and even a $1,000 a month or more for health insurance?
Welcome to Corporate America after 8 years of Republicanism. Quanta, in their debut album, said it best: This is America Corporate America The place where only the rich count This is America Yeah America Why do they get to be paramount?
