Is Trump raising the price of OIl (in all forms) so that people are too financially weak to fight job losses from AI Worldwide?

 Since Trump is: "OF the RICH by the RICH and for the Rich" this is one explanation of what is actually happening here. 

Their thought might be: "If you weaken the middle class and poor enough financially through high gas and food prices then you might be able to take away all their jobs (especially from those younger than 35 in the U.S. and the rest of the world."

This is sort of my thinking right now that this STraight of Hormuz BS is about weakening the whole world enough financially so they cannot fight back against all the AI taking their jobs away during the next 3 to 20 years now worldwide.

However, many Liberal and Conservative people in this country and around the world believe that AI MUST be taxed severely to protect the common people from rising up and killing all the rich people using AI.

This is an idea that all of us must contemplate now I fear because we are all watching it happen in real time now.
