It's a simple power play, you take Crimea we take Cuba, the 'cold war' is over, Putin is ready for another World War and Germany is tired of the spying, and The Ukraine and everyone else I would imagine is tired of the meddling in everyone else's affairs about the right to energy.
Why not just subsidize solar and wind to households instead of making everything a business and tell the military complex to stop trying to make a profit off everything that Chaney and Halliburton thinks that they deserve. Otherwise the constituents are going to end up like Pen State, naked and afraid. Just a suggestion.
