$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('shortonoil', ' ')When the US economy is strong imports go up, and the dollar goes down as more dollars enter the world market. That makes it easier for dollar denominated debt holders to service their debt.

Since 2008 I have seen the conversation shift almost exclusively to economic theory. Peakers had spent years and years studying ecology and related fields but they are way out of their element when it comes to trying to tease out the ups and downs of the market. The closest we've come to a linkage is Chris Martenson's Crash Course but really, this is the weakest leg on the peak-oil doom platform because the economy is a very complicated system. If it were possible to predict then there would be a lot more millionaires out there. But having to deal with the daily drip of doomers turned self-declared economic experts does get tiring.

Asg, it does not take an expert to know that Debt has become like a Cancer on this planet. Nor that Peak Oil is inherently an Economic problem. So, I am not sure what you are saying. Here is link to a timely article about the world mired in Debt.

For 10 years I have been reading here about the collapse of the US dollar. That it is imminent.

This is the slowest imminent I have ever witnessed.

On reflection the wasted energy seems not so wasted as the employment levels require this surplus energy to stay at current levels. I am speaking about those low paying service sector redundant jobs.

There is a real problem with people throwing around words like 'fast' or 'imminent' or 'terminal' because all of those words have actual definitions and the true meaning often bears little resemblance to what the poster is claiming is about to happen.
