The Dreamtime

- James Howard Kunstler -

What I stated is correct, peak oil is a myth but... To believe that we minions will keep paying cheap prices is pure lunacy. Since when has a large oil company ever done anything because it's good for the people? They do what's good for the shareholders. When someone makes the argument that there is much oil to be tapped without adding the perspective of what oil will cost us in years to come shows a very short sighted outlook. Now take this much higher cost that we the minions will have to pay and apply that to people living in a metropolis or even any large city. Apply this much higher cost for all goods because of increased transportation costs, add in social unrest, and what do you think the outcome will be, a nice civil society where people start loving their neighbor as they love themselves? I don't think so. When a five pound sack of potatoes costs urban dwellers $50 what will happen. How about rice at $45 a pound? You know there will be many that will start looking for a few square feet of dirt to plant something. Problem is that when this point is reached it will be too late for most.

So while I have no doubt that the world has many more oil deposits to be 'discovered' I doubt that those who pull it out of the ground will sell it to us cheaply. They will keep finding these new deposits (or previously found but somehow forgotten) just in time to keep the prices elevated but keep wheels moving. This in addition to the afore mentioned China and Russia doing everything they can to control who gets oil. Wars cost big bucks, this means that going to war to secure resources will naturally drive up the pump prices in an endeavor to support the war effort. It's all lose lose for us and win win for the oil companies.

So yes, I take issue with Jim C's view on what JHK stated. Don’t forget that Jim C is a prepper and has worked to ensure that when the things JHK talks about happen he will be prepared. While people in city’s will be starving old Jim C will be out there on his little plot of land bringing in the harvest of fresh vegetables. So people like Jim C while being short sighted when considering humanity are also selfish, preparing to ensure they live better than those poor suckers in the city.

Début de l'article :The idea that techno-industrial society is headed toward a collapse has become very unpopular the last couple of years. Thoughts (and fears) about it have been replaced by a kind of grand redemption fantasy that bears the same relation to economics that masturbation has to pornography. One way to sum up the current psychological state of the nation is that an awful lot of people who ought to know better don’t know their ass from a hole in the ground anymore... Lire la suite
