They don't 'run' anything, but it certainly is a very significant source of revenue for the state.So you're going with oil and gas doesn't basically run the state and determine a great deal of how things are ran?
Where did I say O&G didn't provide a good living to many people here?
I believe the state probably needs that revenue, as do all the people that work in the industry.
None of that happens without access to banking and capital. And if a set of those capital and banking providers are against the industry that provides critical revenue to us, why should the state reward them with management fees for pension funds?
