Behind the Mod curtain I was marvelling at the fact that oil touched $90 a barrel today yet the burning topic of this section is who is and who isnt a expert. I'll share something prolific our highly valued local sociopath stated.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'F')unny, isn't it? We laugh at the poor, dumb fools - the public - who are unaware of what's coming.


Maybe folks here are trying to secure credentials so they can get on CNN?

I'm not, I'm sending them energy solutions instead.

I've already sent them a way out of peak oil(for America), if that solution works then even though they'll make a lot of money, it will ultimately be good for me too.

It's a solution that creates a power source that's highly localized to certain regions. Ultimately this power source(which could more than support the American lifestyle) has a limited range of a few thousand miles(power lines). So ultimately that means that industry will have to be built around this power source.

As an American, what this means for me is that high paying manufacturing jobs that are being sent to China and India, will ultimately have to go where the power sources are.

This means that they'd have to return to America, where the government and the people could control these corporations.

This means a resurgence possibly(for a while) of the American middle class(barring an even larger number of illegal immigrants(the power source should take long enough that public hatred of them will arise creating the desire for "removal" of them from America)), with the high paying jobs(once unions get back into full force) available to the common joe.

This should last for a while(10-40 years)

By then I'll be in a position to produce, market, and sell my energy technology so that I can reap most of the benefits.

...I guess everyone is waiting for $100 per barrel... or when we will always talk in € per liter.

That indeed will be a day to remember.

Interesting perspective. Looking long term I too think there is a possibility for "winners".
