...Yeah, and just think of all the filthy rich, oil fattened sheiks and corporate CEO's rolling in bullion over our increasing duress! Soon there will be no more middle class at all and you will either be decadently wealthy living in gated palaces or you will be struggling with three low paying jobs just to scrape by and avoid foreclosure. Probably working 6 or 7 days a week as in the pathetic and desperate era before unions and FDR...with no benefits, no pensions and no job security whatsoever. Glenn Beck's wet dream come true! Neo-Con paradise here we come!
"He who sows the wind may reap the whirlwind."
There's plenty of oil reserves all over the friggin planet yet to be had, kiddies, this calamity is an artificial construct to squeeze us as much as possible before the whole corrupt scenario collapses in chaos. This PETROLEUM PARTY we are all engaged in one way another will last probably another fifty years or so, plus or minus a decade or two. By then the emerging titans CHINA and INDIA, among others, will assist us in exhausting the remaining stores of fossil fuels. So enjoy those Hummers and Escalades, RV's and Boss Hoss's...for now.... I would love just a minute, however, with no gloves, in a locked chamber with any two oil tycoons...now THAT would be MY paradise
