$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'S')immons forecasts that oil prices could hit $200/bbl as global demand increases. He pointed out that the industry had previously sold its best-quality grade of oil at $15/bbl and flared natural gas because it was too costly to develop.
"That was a mistake," he concluded.

Which option will Geo. W. Bush go for:

OPTION A: Spend $100 trillion to rebuild our infrastructure.

OPTION B: Spend $1 trillion to invade Iraq and Iran.

It is so not going to happen, for a variety of reasons.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('roccman', 'A')mazing what one can learn when one turns off the TV.
However, there are still plenty here that cannot make that leap down the rabbit hole.
Oh well - so it goes.

article quotes $50-100 trillion
$50 trillion divided by a global population of 6.5 billion =$7692 for every human alive on the planet.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Novus', ' ')See you at the bottom of the rabbit hole.

[Starvid]

$50-100 trillion?
My guess of $20-50 trillion was a bit on the low side then.
Still, you get this feeling that Simmons want more money to flow into the oil&gas business, which just might have something to do with a certain person leading and owning the biggest investment bank for the oil&gas industry...

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Starvid', 'L')et's say the cost will be $65 trillion.

[IanC]

I agree. Simmons is trying to say "The price of totally rebuilding our infrastructure is insurmoutable.

It could have easily put the price tag at "A zillion-ga-gillion Dollars" and be saying the same thing.

I wonder where that $100 trillion number comes from.

Unless he can give us some information about what exactly he's talking about...I'm inclined to call this an exaggeration.
