So, an investment discussion is in order. Let's assume that oil stays high and possibly trends much higher. Perhaps we even have an oil crisis. If that happens, I suspect this New Economy of ours will discover, belatedly, that energy still matters. All those internet electrons need oil to move from Point A to Point B. Won't that be a surprise? Given this premise, where does one put her money? Ideas. Biotech? Fuel cells? Cash? Where?

No party will endorse what the people don't want and they don't want a free market in the pricing of fossil fuel products. The people prefer supply vulnerability and fluctuating prices. There can be no energy policy but the policy of allowing the free market to decide price without government interference at any level. The press will never tell you anything that is timely as far as money making goes. They aren't paid to be creative and if they were, they wouldn't be selling what they have for rag rates. There's no point in blaming political parties for anything. They represent the attitudes of the people. What the people believe comes primarily from the universities, and the universities have ulterior motives for leading away from the truth. Considering that the swing producers are ignoring what I told them to do 1 1/2 years ago, you can easily see that stupidity isn't reserved to the universities. That is, the producers are engaging in the same absurd market manipulations that will bring about another oil price collapse in spite of rising demand. Will you then be complaining about some administration's failure to assemble an energy policy? Or will that be no longer operational? I suggest you discover how mistaken is your own conceptualization about these matters before you launch on some time wasting finger pointing exercise in futility. The idea is to make money off all these damn fools' stupidity rather than lose money on your own.
