In an interview broadcast Sunday on "CNN's Fareed Zakaria GPS," the grandson of the founding king of modern Saudi Arabia said the oil price should be somewhere between $70 and $80 a barrel, rather than the current level of over $100 a barrel.

"We don't want the West to go and find alternatives, because, clearly, the higher the price of oil goes, the more they have incentives to go and find alternatives," said Talal, who is listed by Forbes as the 26th richest man in the world.

Of course, that's been their policy since the end of the oil embargo. They know all too well they depend on sales to, now not just us, but the emerging economies of China and India and of course Western Europe. So they'll do what they can as head of OPEC to try and keep the price down but ha ha, screw you, too little too late, I'm still gonna buy an EV!

What will I become after watching fox news straight for 2 weeks? I am doing an experiment soon. I will be watching ONLY fox news and NO OTHER MEDIA OUTLET for the next 2 weeks. I will not watch ANY OTHER TV program. I will watch fox news re-runs on tv and on youtube. The goal is to then engage in conversation with my friends afterwards and see what they say.

Their reaction will be,

Hey, how'd you know about that voice mail?!
