“Travel is indeed surging to record levels this summer, with over 38 million Americans hitting the road and millions more taking to the skies.”

Still waiting to find someone who isn’t doing exactly what they were doing before the war. The 15 dudes I’m heading out on a guys weekend haven’t changed their plans in the last 2 months. All non pilots, normal salaried blue collar workers.
only in your bubbles the sky is falling

if this is a true War, we’ve drastically changed the metric we judge Wars by. When was the last time a bomb dropped? I must have missed the boots on the ground news story…
Lets see if Europe stops flying airplanes before the talk of the reenactment of Vietnam happens.
Hell, we suffered more casualties during a withdrawal than we have during this “War”.

I'm not so sure it's just individual's "bubbles." I Google "oil crisis" every few days just to see if there's any credibility to the claims, and there are always articles suggesting a global shortage could be coming. We can debate whether those sources are correct in their assessments or not, but plenty of different people are talking about it. Here are two just from today. It's not just a difference in CNN vs. Fox.

Who knows, Trump might even make a deal. The question is when? Iran can't hold out forever, but they have probably concluded that US presidents tend to fold under domestic pressure, which tempts them to drag it out.
