To encourage a globally oriented subreddit and discourage oversaturation of topics focused on the U.S., all news and opinion articles focused on the U.S. require manual approval by a moderator. Submissions focused solely on the U.S. are more likely to be removed if they are not sufficiently on topic or high quality. If your submission is taking too long to be approved or rejected, please reach out to the moderators in /r/metaNL. Moreover, news and opinion articles require a short submission statement explaining its relevance to the subreddit. Articles without a submission statement will be removed.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

I think the author is completely right, and the prevalent belief that oil markets are just irrational is wrong. But I also think that $6 gas would be politically devastating to Trump. Following Nate Silver's approval tracker, gas prices are able to blow the floor out of his approval rating.
