As said earlier in this thread, the A8 is made of aluminum. MTM stripped the paint, high-polished the aluminum, and clearcoated it to protect it against the elements. That is not a house, that is indeed a hotel. It is the Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi.

So basically everything in that presentation was complete bullshit

ok that's it. i'm not gonna believe anything on the intarweb now. too many asshats trying to trick people :|

that's the point. these people are just making stuff up as they go so they can just keep on saying Bush is lining the pockets of his middle eastern friends or something to that effect.

I wouldn't be surprised the powerpoint slide dupped a few people.
 
My bad, I used to work at an Audi (actually, VW/Audi/Porsche dealership 😉 ) and should have remembered this.
The front and rear bumpers, trunklid spoiler, gas filler door, rocker panels, and mirrors on the A8 are plastic. Those were painted with chrome-look paint and then clearcoated.

They use billions for personal pleasure, so it's not bullshit. Those exact objects just might differ.

So, capitalism is only good when we're the ones benefiting? 🙂

That money is from the oil, and the oil comes from the ground and it's virtually free money.
So they should share that wealth more evenly to the people of the country.

Not chrome. PPG chrome-look paint. I forgot the exact name of it. There are also photos of various Mercedes' painted with the same paint.

Wah wah wah

It takes money to build the rigs, the tankers, the pipelines, the refineries and then power it all. So quit your whining and go work harder.

Oil tankers are owned by western oil companies, refineries are owned by western oil companies, oil rigs are owned by western oil companies, and rigs are NOT needed in middle east.
In middle east oil is cheap to pump up, it almost comes up without pumping, but they still get high price from their crude oil.
= free money.

And if they don't, we/you should demand lower prices.
Asking high prices and keeping price fixing cartels is illegal, and it should not be accepted.

OPEC rejects US Bill against Oil price fixing

ps. You people in the US should start a political movement to increase the amount of money that stays in the US. It should be easy, since oil can be made at home (biodiesel, alcohol as fuel, etc).
As a bonus US would reduce CO?2 emissions.

There, i just solved several problems.

- High oil prices.
- Global warming.
- Hurricanes (less energy in air after CO2 is reduced).
- Smog (biodiesel and alcohol produce less harmful emissions).
- Terrorists funding (less money for islam extremists).
- No nukes for middle east (they can't afford).
- US budget (less money thrown out of US).
- More jobs for US citizens (when making fuel in the US).
- etc, etc.

btw. that's not all, but that is plenty for one man to solve in a lifetime.
