Oil tankers are renting for $1.1M a day!

That's up 12x pre-war, a record.

Shipping one barrel from the Gulf to Asia now costs $22.

Last year it was $2."

Bullshit. You can buy condos in Edmonton for $250K. A friend owns one downtown that has dropped in price by 50-75K over the last 10 yrs. Both our kids bought their own homes and neither is rich."
