Opec Quotes
The scarce water of Dune is an exact analog of oil scarcity. CHOAM is OPEC.

Russia does not control oil prices - OPEC does. So Russia is a hostage in the hands of those who control these prices.
Christopher A. Pissarides
The Christians had a better chance against the lions than the American consumer has against the OPEC cartel.
Ed Markey
Instead of begging OPEC to drop its oil prices, lets use American leadership and ingenuity to solve our own energy problems.
Pete Domenici
As the cost of gasoline rises and our dependence on foreign oil continues to increase, the effect of sending over $100 billion each year to OPEC nations hurts every American.
Paul Gillmor
Fear of emotional contact with men out of fear of being a sexual suspect makes boys, ironically, even more powerless before girls. Homophobia is like telling the United States it will be a sissy nation if it doesn't get all its oil from OPEC.
Warren Farrell
There is no free market for oil. It's controlled by a cartel, OPEC.
Frederick W. Smith
My big focus is China and OPEC and all of these countries that are just absolutely destroying the United States.
Donald Trump
If you look - look at - I mean, look at what's going on with your gasoline prices. They're going to go to $5, $6, $7 and we don't have anybody in Washington that calls OPEC and says, 'Fellas, it's time. It's over. You're not going to do it anymore.'

A UN ceasefire ended hostilities on October 22, 1973, but the OPEC embargo against the United States remained in force while the organization further increased the price per barrel to the rest of the world. What followed was an interesting case study in network breakdown and cascading failure. In fact, the embargo never actually achieved a shutoff of OPEC oil imports to the United States. All but about 5 percent of the needed supply found its way to America by a circuitous route as allocations to other nations were surreptitiously redirected. But the base price of a barrel of oil did eventually more than quadruple by the time the embargo was called off in March 1974. And the price rise, alone staggered the West and Japan. Already at that time, public transit was a thing of the past and about 85 percent of Americans drove to work every day.
