  • i think wars will break out before anarchy the day that the gas isn't coming to the pumps, heating homes, manufacture products, ect...

  • This guy is right...unfortunately, we do not have enough oil left to survive.

    wars will be fought over the last drops but that will not help, we will all live in anarchy soon.

  • were so lazy that when we discovered oil we even have our own touch pad so we dont even have to push a button.

    fact: a person who depends on one source is doomed from the start

  • @iksas2544 what drugs are you on?

  • Humans are doomed

    We are destroying everything

  • @MissSovietBones What do you know about common sense? Please give me a break.

  • We survived before oil and we'll survive again after it, common sense. Our lives won't go back to the Stone Ages either because alternate energy will replace SOME "necessities" we rely on that need oil. I don't understand how some of you people can live thinking like this. Are you trying to make yourselves depressed? You'll be just fine, maybe a little bit over extended for awhile, as long as you switch to electronic cars, solar energy, and try to grow your own food and stock up on water+seeds.

  • the real end is going to be in 3 mil years because 2 universes will divine

  • OiL? Gas? LOL!! People...it wouldnt take the loss of oil to start anarchy. If every fast food restaurant suddenly shut down permenantly, people would start killing each other. And heaven forbid we lose our cell phone ability..omg. Cant use a HORSE or a bicycle because it would make me late for my 2PM conferance call......omg.

  • Good point!

  • That's out the window now... can't afford that anymore

  • yeah thats cuz it has no atmosphere to burn up the tiny meteorites demolishing the crap out of the moon if you think about it though the moon is growing in size because of it lol
