Oil prices are fixed.
America1st video is saying that oil prices are rising due to inflation. If inflation was the only thing causing oil prices to increase, then only the United States would be paying more for oil. Other countries would see the higher oil prices offset by buying their American dollars at a discount. The fact that oil is listed in American dollars and traded exclusively in New York and London should tell you something.
In Canada, the USA$ has gone from $1.50 Canadian to $1. In that same time, we've seen oil prices go from around $20/barrel to as high as $150/barrel.
Inflation is not the whole story. Oil prices are being manipulated.
