Dang it-Hank, that sounds disgusting! I liked what Andy said. Can't I hang on to my fantasy world?
No, you'd prefer increased demand. The primary reason why demand is decreasing because economic growth is turning negative.
The oil demand growth advocates point to Chindia's growing consumption. Chindia's economic growth was in large part powered by exports to the US. US demand for those goods are showing a decrease.
You think that decreasing demand is a fantasy world? What do you think happens in an economic slowdown?
