The Stench of Truth (54) Obama,gas,oil drilling,plague

[hinder4lifep00nz]

And the cost of the new machines and things that use the new energy resources are very expensive. A normal, working class family can't afford these.

[tenebroust]

Yes, that's true too. We all need to remember that ALL new technology is universally expensive. It is worth it to pursue such technology in order to make it more affordable and easier to make and use. As I say until then we NEED to use oil and should be drilling here, now.

[dave777blaster]

why do some people call others morons,when they are speaking the truth and are intelligent.

is it because of their own short comings.

they say the first stop on the road to truth is

fear then denial then rage

it must be rage that these guys are stuck on.

you have to find the fortitude to rise above the rage Ted is telling the truth with composure .

[tenebroust]

Human kind cannot have it's basic drives legislated away. Banning something or making using fossil fuels illegal will do nothing except enrage people. In your scenario you would husband your resources, in the same way that we should husband our resources. In this instance we have sufficient gas and oil to let us go on until a clean alternative(s) is/are found. There is no reason to start living in a cave with candles until a new better energy source arrives. When that energy source...

[tenebroust]

does arrive people will be glad to have it and most gladly give up the use of oil and gas. Until then it is sheer lunacy to try and change people's behavior with laws and force a dark age on us until some great new energy source is available on a massive scale to sustain us.

[CyranoMontoya]

Finally someone is right about all this! Way to go man!

[UTBESUX]

I wish you would post PROOF to this Bilderberg story. It isn't that I doubt it but I would like to see the actual proof. You do seem to ASSUME many things. DID YOU KNOW that the oil companies have 64 MILLION acres to DRILL on already? So on ONE hand you are pushing an UNCONFIRMED STORY & on the other you seem to be clueless when it comes to BIG OIL. Do U NOT get it? TWO OIL MEN in the WH, OIL SKY HIGH push for drilling in a few spots that the BIG oil companies want. Ignorance is not bliss.

[tenebroust]

What do I assume. If you had looked at my latest video you would see my comments regarding unused oil leases. If companies have leases they are not using they should have to give them up or drill on them before getting new ones.

[tenebroust]

Thanks for pointing out my moron nature. Not on a massive scale as you would have concluded if you had paid attention to my video. Yes oil companies suppress technology etc. So, let's assume that they have the technology to make hydrogen cars and solar power panels for home energy. How long would it take to build factories to produce them in sufficient numbers to have an affect, unless you believe that they have wharehouses full of such things hidden away.

[jdearman77]

Hey moron we have the technology right now to have alternative energy and hydrogen cars, the oil companies just want us to keep us addicted on oil to screw the middle class

[hoppermantis]

Hemp for victory !!! 10% of food crop space would power america through hemp oil? why are we allowing our country to slowly degrade into a third world level? And now L.E.A.P. is questioning our methods against the drug concept... I truly want to understand so i can feel like patriot. Good enough to win ww2 but not the hostile management of oil overseas...

[Tessa92503]

Wow...where is this guy at? LOL. His cave? LOL.

[thezach01]

bin ladens cave.

[pskier12]

wow, i dont really have words but the fact that you live under a rock is consistent.

[jdearman77]

LIES

we have technology to not even need oil.

We need to develoP CLEAN NON POLLUTING ENERGY SOURCES like Wind, Solar, Alternative Fuels, Hydrogen Vehicles.

NO DRILLING FOR OIL!!!!!

[tenebroust]

Well you can live in denial if you want to. I won't stop you. But had you listened to what I said in the video you would see that I don't disagree with you about alternative, cleaner fuels. Until they are a reality we need to think about our own energy needs-while at the same time working on new and better alternatives. That means more oil.

[BFTCaL]

contaminated irrigation water.

[rangitsch]

who are you? you're not smart enough to even talk about this shit.

[inredress]

Well who are you? Shut your piehole and listen; you may learn something.

[lc501]

Keep working on that "nerd rage" delivery, you have the talent. Getting people laughing a lot is often the best way to get your point across and also attract more subscribers.

[RealityEngines]

Another excellent post. I thought the same thing about the remaking of Andromeda Strain myself. The Oil companies should be made to open their "suppressed technology" files. They have bought patents on alternative energy sources for years, suppressing them. Now is the time to use them if they haven't been lost and destroyed.

[TheCZMan]

Euh, no. They are simply preparing the next stage. Why would a new energy paradigm be detrimental to current oil companies? They have the money to be the major agents in a new energy sector. This is why they are buying the patents: they are simply preparing the next stage. Not to suppress technology.

[RealityEngines]

Well then they've been "milking" preparing the next stage for all its worth. The oil companies tactics are always to profit the oil companies FIRST not the consumer. Don't kid yourself and don't try to kid me. They suppress what is in their best interest to suppress.

[TheCZMan]

"They suppress what is in their best interests to suppress" Absolutely and that is why they dont suppress new technologies concerning energy sources.

Dont kid yourself and try to kid me: the oil companies will be the major funders, shareholders etc... of the new energy sector to come.

[RealityEngines]

>Absolutely and that is why they dont suppress new technologies concerning energy sources.

I have to wonder where these new technologies are in the production cycle then as it takes many years for any new technology to appear in the marketplace. I have to wonder why they weren't developed in a more timely manner if maximizing oil profits weren't a large part of the oil industries equation in developing them.

[TheCZMan]

Quite easy to answer. Said in the vid by the way. Oil is the best current option. Every other option will fail to match oil in all aspects id est their best interests are certainly not to push for less efficient solutions (it would be a loss of money) but to keep with the best solution available.

That is all.

Maybe when oil is dried, horses will come back but currently, telling that an horse is a match to a explosion engine is untrue.

[RealityEngines]

Oh of course. How could I have been so cynical?  New technologies will not be introduced until the profit ratio dictates it.

[TheCZMan]

That is the point indeed. Or more probably in the case of oil, since it is very likely that the new technologies will never manage to be as efficient as the current ones, when oil will no longer be available.

[tenebroust]

Excellent discussion. All this assumes that oil is a limited resource (ala peak oil, and the mainstream view that oil is the product of ancient living things). If oil is a renewable resource then it may be used indefinitely if we can get away from the nonsense that man is causing global warming (if global warming is real). This is a reasoned rationale for suppressing technology, in the end it is always about profit.

[BigFatTonyCal]

good points here my friend. and your a funny guy. What the Hell is running in there an AC unit.

[tenebroust]

Hmmm, could be and AC unit...yeah that's what it is. Whew...

[mikeh68]

Another interesting vid. There's a couple of things I disagree with, but that's not a bad thing. I think it's a good we're seeing escalating oil prices. Why? Alternative energy companies are starting to flourish. Want a car that gets 300 miles a gallon for under 30 grand? It's available (Aptera). Want a machine that makes 35 gallons of ethanol a week for a dollar a gallon? Available. Electric cars? Available with a shitload more coming. I say weather the storm....it'll pay off.

[tenebroust]

That is true but those technologies still do not address the fundamental need for available energy. Yes you can buy an electric car etc., but I'm talking about industrial power too. Until so-called clean energy is available on a massive scale, and affordable for the masses, fossil fuels still are the answer. But keep working on the new stuff too.

[mikeh68]

Drilling on the refuge in Alaska would solve the problem, but we wouldn't need to drill if the citizens became a little proactive. We'll always consume oil for one purpose or another, but why the hell are we still using internal combustion engines? It's 130 year old technology...if people made the conscious effort to shun the use of oil when they could, there'd be plenty available domestically for industry. That's what I think, anyway...

[mikeh68]

And it should be noted here that I only have a basic understanding of how and why oil prices fluctuate. In other words, I'm basically talking out of my ass. But I do know that oil has produced plenty of dead soldiers. I know that we can be allies with assholes like Saudi Arabia because of it. I think it's worth a little hardship to be rid of it.

[tenebroust]

This is another excellent reason to drill and use our own oil.

[tenebroust]

Good point about internal combustion engines. There's surely something better. Electric cars were big in the 20's and 30's, had that technology been developed we would have batteries that could take you a thousand miles on a charge. The reality of it is still that until we have that new energy available widely and cheaply we need to be smart and use our own oil.

[RealityEngines]

I've been a long time opponent to nuclear energy but I think a highly regulated industry and cookie-cutter single design might be a unavoidable alternative. Strange zero-point type energy sources just aren't materializing no matter what the hype.

[Bonecrkr]

Whelp.....I can tell you what is going to happen with oil. Over the summer, it's going to chop back and forth from $130ish to $150ish a barrel. If Russia and Georgia go to war, as they have been threatening to do for weeks now, it might hit $160 a barrel.

Then, sometime before the Presidential election, it's going to crash and crash hard....probably making Obama look like a fool in the process. It will drop to at least under $100 a barrel, probably far, far less.

[tenebroust]

Interesting analysis.

[petrsakharov]

How have people been so fooled by "global warming"? What the fuck? Haven't people heard of the holecene maximum, the little ice age, the medieval warming period? Climate changes no matter what man does. Wake the fuck up people.

[tenebroust]

Exactly.

[RealityEngines]
