It's not Russian Roulette. In Russian Roulette, you die if you hit the wrong outcome.

You brought up the specter of nuclear conflict up thread. Isn’t that a Russian Roulette scenario?

Lessening China’s power in the world lessens any potential for a conflict.

OPEC didn't "overplay their hand" - their hand just wasn't that strong.

Again, it was strong enough to completely reshape an important piece of US manufacturing. I’ll remind you that not just the Big 3 were affected: all the supply based that used to provide production inputs also suffered.

Why hand anyone else that kind of influence over your country when you don’t have to?
