January 2 (Bloomberg) -- Matthew Simmons, chairman of Simmons & Co. International, and Jan Stuart, oil economist at UBS AG, talk with Bloomberg's Pimm Fox about crude oil's rise to $100 barrel today, the outlook for oil prices and prospects for alternative energy. Oil rose to $100 for the first time in New York as record global fuel consumption threatens to outpace production.

  • Hemp for victory !!! 10% of food crop space would power america? 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.

  • hit a 132.95 today. yikes. whats all this about George Reisman?

  • did he say a rising price of oil equals a rising gdp (0826min); is this for oil exporting countries only?

    i think the biggest problem is susbituting oil for something else, i mean i lived in japan and there are trains everywhere; i mean.. you could prooly count on one hand how many trains r in north america. i feel bad inside 4 that; we were given everything and now we can't let go of it.

  • It would be interesting to watch a debate between Peter Schiff and Matt Simmons on the inflation vs. supply/demand pressures on oil prices. Peter's argument that oil is only 10% more expensive over 30 years, when priced in gold, holds water, but peak oil may put additional pressure on prices as per supply/demand.

  • Guess not, eh?

  • It is kind of scary that someone from UBS appears to know very little about the connection between energy and economic growth. This is why I know longer trust anybody with my investments.

  • Just read Reisman's "Mining....". He should stick to economics, what he knows best. REALLY IDIOTIC!

  • George Reisman is an idiot.

  • there's enough oil and other natural

    sourches for AT LEAST the next MILLION year.

    Just google for "Mining for the Next Million Years by George Reisman"

  • Eyh! Matts lump-dinosaur is up and going again!
