Winter's Coming for the Boomers: Part 2

>We have 5% of the world’s population, but use 25% of the world’s energy.<

This is a very deceptive statement. How much is this 25%? How much energy do we produce here in the USA? How much energy do we BUY from foreign producers.

Link Between Large Oil Price Changes and GDP: It's Not What You Think

Hows the GDP doing now after oil hit $140.00 brl last year?

Checking in on Oil's Fundamentals

The US is the biggest buyuer of oil on the world market. In a sense we contgrol the price. As long as our one party government rations domestic energy production, we are just a cork in the world oil patch. If we could increase production on a sustainable basis of approx 3,000,000 brls a day it would be whole different world for the USA.

The IEA Annual Report: A Dire Picture of Energy Supply and Demand

>That rise in CO2 concentrations, however, will lead to a 3 degree Celsius rise in average global temperatures. <

WOW! What Scientific precision: X CO2 yields Y Degrees Celcius. Like a scientific fact, proven by many repeatable and verifiable experiments with measured and observed data from the biosphere. Where is all this overwhelming evidence that we ordinary people can view and analyize it?

Energy Independence Isn't a Supply-Side Issue

It is about domestic supply, domestic jobs, domestic infrastructure & distribution First. All the other stuff comes in later as it is developed. Energy production and supply is being rationed by congress , the ecco lobbies, and the ecco lawyers.

Ahead of the Fed: Oil and the Dollar

How about the purchasing power of the dollar? Keeping CPI inflation under 2.5% is also de-valuing the dollar. It takes 22.10 2008 dollars to equal one (1) 1913 dollar. Thats the Fed's real record. All these big company's are trying to get ahead of the debased dollars with excessive trading and leverage and then fold up.

Which Inflation Is It Anyway?

The record of the Fed & the Treasury & the Congress is clear: One (1) 1913 dollar is worth $22.10 2008 dollar.
