It's probably too late.

It's a disaster LOL. We're having to pay more for gas.

"ANY growth in demand will lead to world shortages"

Demand is certain to grow. 2 billion Chindians want to drive and live like Americans.

Any cut in supply will also lead to shortages. It could be Israel attacking Iran, or a hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico.

We're at a place where we really can't afford stupid leadership. Probably well PAST that place, as you said.

At some point people have to realize we are not approaching crisis, we are "in crisis". Supply at this point may or may not meet demand, hard to know for sure... but ANY growth in demand will lead to world shortages. And world shortages will lead to resource competition... with the weak $ and 25% consumption of world production we are entirely vulnerable.

Unfortunately, the fantasy based like inoys and harris will never accept there is not enough supply. They need to blame some one.....inevitably it will be first OPEC for not pumping more and then liberals for letting a golden opportunity like ANWR get away from us. Neither make a lot of sense but when did the neos ever need to make sense.
