Whatever it takes, I hope it does get somewhat resolved. And if you remember Roco, we just charge less taxes on it. So learn to make cheaper roads bro.  wink

 :haha: :haha:
Laughing Bro we can always drop some off the tax , maybe as much as $3 USD ,
can you guys do the same ?
just been reading this , and the figs seem about right,
but at $200 USD a barrel the Canadian shale fields could become a possibility ,

"Projecting 2001 production levels, by 2020 83% of global oil reserves will be controlled by Middle Eastern regimes.

The energy security and national security concerns that stem from reliance on a single energy resource that is unevenly distributed throughout the world will be intensified as demand for oil grows. The result will probably be:

A handful of Middle East suppliers will regain the influence they had in the 1970s and once again be able to dictate the terms on world oil markets and manipulate oil prices and world politics.
Middle Eastern producers will continue to use their oil revenues to increase their military expenditures, fuel an arms race and undermine regional stability.
Corrupt, oppressive regimes will continue to use oil revenues as a means to maintain their power.
Wealth generated by oil rich Middle Eastern countries will continue to flow into terrorist organizations and organizations promoting radical Islam.
The U.S. will need to keep increasing American military presence in the region to ensure our access to the remaining oil. This will mean further U.S. embroilment in Middle East conflicts, more anti-American sentiment, and a deepening rift between the West and the Islamic world.
Tension between the U.S. and China due to growing Chinese intervention in the Middle East to ensure its own access to oil and Chinese arming of Middle Eastern countries hostile to the U.S. and its allies.
Further drain on economic resources caused by imports of expensive oil. "

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

oil will be about finished in 20 years , thats why my bet with Dlewis is on a winner , it ain't never going to be cheaper than it is now, maybe minor fluctuations in the mean while but the only way is UP long term , sooner we all accept that , and that includes the UK , ( our oil is about gone , ) we sold it cheap years back ,
we now import gas from Russia , without that we would freeze in the winter, I have my catalytic gas fire on at the moment , burning Russian gas , they may decide they need it more than me , and turn the gas off , and I note Russia and America are thinking about building a pipe link between Russia and America,
WOW, times are indeed changing , the world is shrinking , and alegencies  are changing ,
so where are the reds under the bed gone ? and will we all be kissing ass to the islamic nations ?
maybe so , just glad I won't be around to see those times , but my grandchildren will be ,
IMHO cheap oil is gone forever ,
BTW,  I would be happy to be proved wrong on that ,

All so very true, unless we find a renewable resouirdce now to replace oil  real soon. If figures the gov't to be slow in reacting though. They always are. Myself I am really thinking of owning enough acreage to do my own fuel for real. Land is the one thing that can never be replaced. Except on another planet. And I do not intend to move that far right away.  azn

Good move bro , as Mark Twain said all those years back ," land they ain't making it anymore " , already in my  area, building land is fetching  $5million an acre, my house built for $1500 USD back in 1937 . is now worth $750,000 USD , and more as a cleared site ,  the rent is valued at $29,000 per year ,
lol,  if I could find a cave to move into I would,  the cheapest apartment in the uk is now around $245,000 USD , and in a poor area, (crime or floods)
some days I just think the world has gone crazy ,

Didnt think about that, but something has to be done,
Yea unfortunantly Mud is right, they dont work. If your gonna use the gas your gonna use it. Doesnt really matter if you buy it today or a week from now. I agree we need to do something about prices. I guess when you have something that is limited in supply and after you use it its gone... well sooner or later your gonna run out.. and its gonna go up in price all the way to the end.

it is an issue of supply and demand. cut back the demand and the price will drop.

so we go and nuke china and india, the two biggest consumers, back into the stoneage and enjoy low gas prices again.

your not a fault for using gas. No one is. Its the only real thing to use right now. Until someone comes up with something, that is actually usable by the masses your not a fault, when that happens then you will be a fault for using gas.

The only people that are at fault, are the dip S#!ts in washington that wont let us get our own oil. china can get our oil but we can't, and thats because of the dip S#!t nancy pelosi run congress. They are the only ones at fault.
