Finding Opportunity in Peak Oil

[144jr144]

Some of y'all's comments about Kunstler's perspective are odd: like whether or not some people will war over resources, when that may be what wars have been about all along, including current wars and other systems of organized violence, such as the entire realm court operations AKA governments, warlords, "legalized" piracy, etc. Still, the "LONG emergency" question is a new scale of the issue that faced the Easter Islanders: when there is no where else accessible to go to war for new resources.

no one is gonna fight over dwindling resource outside but time will come very fast due to panic market. Then 1970's will happen again for real this time. It should happen within 5-8years when our cars suddenly realize that useless at all. Just think of how fast populations are growing in every country and demand is shooting up fast that supply won't be enough to cover. Every country start to buy remaining to turn to plastic and different lubricants, not as gasoline. Keep in mind not GAS!
