   You're correct, and if you honestly know anything about JTEM you know   
   that he's a massive over thinker, he has long since wasted many, Many,   
   MANY an hour overthink all of this and he has solutions!   
      
   Workable solutions.   
      
   #1.  Background   
      
   One of the problems with Iran, and the single biggest problem right   
   now, is the Gwobull Warbling scam.   
      
   "Gwobull Warbling honestly is a scam. It's all about controlling   
   resources.   
      
   Surprise-Surprise!  This is was #1 problem with Venezuela!  Amongst   
   their crimes they were selling their oil for less than the dictated   
   market price, and outside their allotted sales!   
      
   Huh?!?!?   
      
   It's resource control -- "Resource Management."   
      
   There's a finite supply of resources while at the same time there   
   in an INFINITE POTENTIAL FOR GROWTH! So the planet earth has no   
   choice but to manage resources or run out and deal with the   
   consequences.   
      
   THIS IS NOT JUST TRUE FOR FOSSIL FUELS!   
      
   You're hearing the same issues ALL the time about "Rare Earth Minerals"   
   for example, and fishing resources will probably crash long before   
   both fossil fuels and "Rare Earth" minerals...   
      
   Lumber?   
      
   Copper?   
      
   You name it, we need to start managing it...   
      
      
   #2.  The Conflict   
      
   Iran (and others) has noticed that all the so-called "Solutions" to   
   this resource problem "Coincidentally" involve making the most evil,   
   selfish, greedy, snobbish people in the west even more wealthy and   
   powerful than they already were. And this is ridiculously even   
   comically obvious to anyone NOT living under the recently propaganda   
   of our fake journalism.   
      
   Cars are too good for us little people/private jets are more popular   
   than ever for the self imposed elite...   
      
   NOTE:  ONE of Bill Gates' private jets, his favorite, apparently,   
   uses roughly as much fuel in one hour as 200 "Average" Americans   
   use in a day. So a 2-hour flight on his private jet uses more fuel   
   than your "Average" American uses in a year.. significantly more!   
      
   NOTE II:  When computing the "Average" American you are including   
   the data on people like Bill Gats, Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk. So your   
   "Typical" American would have to use a lot less than "Average."   
      
   So this whole "CO2" fraud, this "Climate Crisis" hoax is hurting   
   the people at the bottom and heaping the rewards on the evil at   
   the top. And Iran notices. Lots of governments notice. So how do   
   we fix this?   
      
      
   #3.  The Solution   
      
   Federalism!   
      
   Yes, the American FEDERALIST SYSTEM!   
      
   So Iran is rich in fossil fuels and we need to conserve the   
   planets resources, MANAGE the planets resources. How do we do   
   this while recognizing that Iran's sovereignty? How do we do   
   this while acknowledging Iran's ownership and right to those   
   resources?   
      
   FEDERALISM!   
      
   Iran has fossil fuels. Iran can do anything it damn well   
   pleases with those fossil fuels WITHIN THEIR BORDERS. And the   
   global market can only police TRADE BETWEEN NATIONS in those   
   resources.   
      
   It may seem like a subtle difference but it's not.   
      
   Oo!  I forgot another change:   
      
   We completely abandon -- even "Ban" -- all CO2 bullshit. For   
   now own fossil fuels are defined as "Energy" and 100% of all   
   energy is measured in BTUs.   
      
   So if Iran wants to burn their fossil fuels, create electricity   
   and then sell the electricity to their neighbors, they can't   
   pretend that the electricity is "Carbon free!" because nobody   
   cares about carbon anymore. We're measure BTUs.   
      
   Another difference with the FEDERALIST system?  The evil skanks   
   that rule Europe wrote their "CO2" scheme in such a way that   
   entitles them to other people's oil.   
      
   It's true.   
      
   What it did was invent a global budget and allocated shares   
   of that budget "Equally," on a per capita basis. So by virtue   
   of having people, the evil of Europe is entitled to fossil   
   fuels that other nations own.   
      
   Under FEDERALISM they aren't entitled to squat.   
      
   So under the FEDERALIST plan nations own and can do whatever   
   they want with their own goddamn resources, and it's only   
   trade BETWEEN nations that is government.   
      
      
   #3.  Keep regulation at a minimum   
      
   If the goal here is resource management, conservation, then   
   the goal isn't to stick it to other nations...   
      
   For instance, set a minimum price but not a maximum. And the   
   "Price" should be on BTUs, not "Barrels of oil" or "Ton   
   of coal" or even "Cubic foot of natural gas."   
      
   And we should probably come up with some easily understood   
   formula on quantities. Like, we divide their entire energy   
   potential by 200 or whatever number you think is right, and   
   then THAT is how much a country can export each year.   
      
   So for a nation like Iran that's a big number, for some   
   other countries it's pretty small...   
      
   Effectively what this would do is encourage Iran to develop   
   other energy sources -- the more they have, the more they   
   can export -- while guaranteeing Iran a minimum price, though   
   they can charge more.   
      
   There. Done. Now Iranian energy resources will last at least   
   200 more years... or whatever number we settled on.   
      
   I have no problem with saying "300" or more!   
      
   There. That's FEDERALISM. Iran can swim in their oil if they   
   want to. Iran can burn it all converting sea water into   
   fresh water. But they can only sell 1 years worth (out of   
   some 200) at a time, and they have to collect a minimum price   
   (or more) per BTU.
