Default OPEC would be eating sand were it not for the USA

The Saudis and other ingrates within OPEC seem to have
very short memories. It was US expertise that enabled
them to extract the oil from the wasteland they call home.

Most of the oil rich nations have not a clue, but have depended
on American and British exprts to help reap in the exorbitant
profits they now enjoy.

So should we be nicer to the Chinese, or Italians, or even the Arabs? We all
use technology that has it origins in other nations/cultures.
