The part of this equation that I think is often left out
isn't oil, but food. The US used to be the bread basket of
the world. Now, we're growing corn to make ethanol/gas mix
that uses more energy to produce than it yields, Duh?
The Middle East may have oil, but they can't grow food,
and they can't eat the oil.
We've gotten ourselves on the wrong side of this whole
supply/demand thing, and it's gonna cost us dearly in
the near future, at least. Unless something is done.
What should be done? I'm not sure.
But, the rich are going to get richer,
and the poor are going to get poorer.
And I'm gonna ride my bike, and go fishing,
