Nah; you're in panic mode, because you don't read or listen. It's a shame, really, but it is what it is. I can't do anything to make you smarter.

I suspect you're aware of this on some level; thus, the panic mode.

That is NOT a good thing for our economy. The reason interest goes up in alt energy when oil prices jump is that alt energy becomes more economically viable relative to oil. But it ALSO means that we all end up paying more for our energy use. Having the price of oil go up because we cut off supply (or potential supply) is ignorant.

If the government wants oil prices to jump, it should do it by ending the subsidies to oil companies.

If the government was truly interested in reducing oil consumption, it would make the shift to nat gas a national priority. Nat gas is cleaner and the tech is available NOW. We just need to build the infrastructure to handle the demand.

We're going to pay more regardless of what approach is taken and expecting subsidies to end is what's ignorant. The companies are the politicians bread and butter. The government, the politicians, are not interested in lowering oil prices if it affects a company's bottom line.

It's time to stop accepting any thing or any procedure in order to get oil. As for the economy an alternative source will not only eventually lower the cost for us but lower the cost for all nations/people.

R&D and mass production of solar panels would be a boom to desert economies. Wind turbines for countries with mountainous terrains.

Think global, Lad! :)

Why drag out the pain? The cost of oil is going to continue to rise. Further disasters are going to occur.

It's time to bite the bullet. :)
