It is time to stop the greed among nations. Nations cannot be administered like business enterprises where profitability is the sole objective for existence. The sky high jump in oil and other commodity prices are due to speculation and not due to shortages of supply or increases in demand. The wars are created to control supply lines rather to bring justice as often claimed. The Americans should get out of the Middle East, then the prices of oil will come down and followed by other commodities world wide. The longer the wars are prolonged in the Middle East, the hike of prices will continue. More people will be poorer and only the speculators will gain. The general public will have to foot the war bills and pay for high costs of living immaterial whether they are in support of the wars. Human lives have become so cheap and considered only as mere statistics by the leaders and war lords in Washington and London.
