What if, just what if the people in power do not care about peak oil because they can use demand destruction (reduction of population in the range of 95-98%) and profit from this(by raising prices) to the very last end...what if??

The answer to our problems is right in front of our face, but no one wants to go back to the way things were in the 1960s. Having mom-and-pop stores for our basic needs and the large chains for the rest would fix all our problems. We need to work together as Americans and go back to the day when you knew who you could trust. We have the technology to get over 120 mpg, but us conceited Americans can't do without the sports cars and we can't abide by the posted speed limits.

Well, consider this: USA peaked in the 70s and every other country has peaked up to today. Up to know there is no shortage on the markets. In combination with the financial crisis the elite inflicted on us now i guess everything is working according to plan.Question of peak oil or not is irrelevant considering what lies ahead of humanity....

I thik you did a pretty good job here of raising the questions that we all need to be asking. Peak oil is a reality; today, tomorrow, maybe a couple of decades away. Yet our governments remain silent on it. I wonder what we will say when our grandchildren ask us what we did about peak oil?

Your video seems to paint a somewhat accurate picture of peak oil, Then suggests we are mis-informed for a small group of people to get very rich. When the oil crash happens, without a suitable energy replacement, our economy and many other things will collapse, making that wealth totally pointless. For me your taking a real issue and dabbing it in conspiracy, whereas the issue itself is all that needs to be put to people whilst it isnt recognised by world leadrers and governments.

What does this smarmy sounding Brit know about AMERICAN oil?

See my Peak Oil video for the truth about it.

@jmallton I agree, but believe the oil prices and policy is all about making money and honestly believe that unforturnatly, here in america conservation is the key as we honestly are wasteful, do not take that personal anyone, I just think it is the truth.

There are so many alternatives but many would take away the profit motive.
