Were you not aware of the upcoming "crisis" 10 years ago, 15, or 20? I certainly was, and I think most of us who were of age were, as well.

I remember distinctly during the Carter years sitting in rationing lines and realizing the looming problem. Do you not?

Yes I do, and it was an entirely different situation. It was completely political, not a supply demand issue. (And we were producing ~70% of our consumption compared to less than 40% today). Only in the last ~10 years have people, especially industry people, begun to recognize peak oil, and the vast majority, including you, don't grasp the implications.
