    The real question is how quickly demand can be destroyed.

      I am hesitant to ask, and yet morbidly curious what you are gesturing at.

        Destroying demand is about getting people to not consume the thing. Oil being a knock on everything else and at such a volume would probably starve millions at the very least. This whole thing is a depopulation war. If you're reading this, you're on the losing side.
