Canadian's don't have a better standard of living because the US has graced them with their business. Canadian's have higher taxes, and in return get all the services they enjoy, including universal healthcare. Their military spending isn't a black hole to their budget like it is with the Pentagon. They don't have 1000 military bases around the world, ready to invade whenever the US feels like it.

and yet regardless competition always necessitates an increase in production as one of the two ways inwhich a company can lower prices without loosing profits, putting the world onto a constant cycle of increased production, that is simply unsustainable and will collapse when the enviroment can no longer handle it. And let's not firget the constant trend in the free market towards creating oligopolies, there used to be 100s of car companies in the states now there are 3.

Lol, the shocker would be to make it cheap and sell it for $10.00/gal and claim that it cost too much to make! Then again we're all gullible right?!

Hows this for a shocker its cheaper to make oil than it is to drill for it.

Incorrect. Obama is Big Oil. Ron Paul was the threat. Obama is a temporary compromise between Us and the Oil Lobby.

Yo dude! Read this article "Florida scientists turn algae into fuel" Lol, the funny thing about this is they bypassed a hundred million years to create it. The second thing is that the algae feeds off of CO2. The end product is oil and they contemplate placing the algae farms next to smoke stacks. Again the balance of nature minus the hundred million years to make it. But most important air pollution is wiped out.

I checked out your guy Pianka, and he has some interesting theories. However, as he put it, don't bring up an argument, or opposing point of view w/out back up...I would ask you to check out some of my playlists, specifically edible estates, or "eat". Also have a look at some of those I subscribe too.

It would depend on how you define prosperity.

I don't think of prosperity as a 5000 square foot house and a pair of Lexus' in the driveway.

Why cuz I responded to comments left on my comment? I don't believe either to be true - but definitely am not a Real news employee.

I'd guess you're either a control freak or work for "Real" News.
