I'm a little skeptical of this argument. If "they" got control of the oil, they'd still need to sell it to "us." They'd have a huge cash flow to deal with, and enormous temptations to siphon it off and/or invest it in London and New York. The material circumstances almost inevitably generate the incentives for a resource rentier class.
