Resource crunch is solved by price. Price skyrocket, alternatives appear. Money goes to seek new sources. People start using them wisely. Germany grew chemical industry developed alternatives for natural products. See IG Farben dismembered after WWII into BASF, Hoechst and Bayer). US vehicles will go from 8 to 6 cylinders, now fast going to 4 cylinders. Don't worry. It will be solved.

There is an interesting discussion on Ahhas thread about Says Law. Those of you who constitute mouthpieces with ties to the international might benefit from it. Reading these posts today, one sees that nationalism and basic resource arguments are centerpiece for extrapolations. These stuck in the mud generalizations dont help your case, and will always end up giving you a pie in the face. Everything accept the things that really matter, you project outward. What really matters is the Degrees of Freedom operational in your economies, and Says Law, which enables the best and brightest to undertake the invention of new markets. This combination is the only combination that combined creates the dynamics for a vigorous growth in the IQ of nations character. Your so yesterday with your control units, your underlying status as workers for oligarchic malfeasance just spoils the character of your potential. recognize that many are here are paid for, its just a hope that some bandwidth might connect and reverberate back to your control units, that indeed its our missing information that bites.

Well when it comes to energy... the world is not Canada's oyster.. We are boxed in of our own doing through laziness or shortsightedness or both.. but more likely other interests and hence we are the patsies.. One only need look at the permanent curtailing of refining capacity in eastern Canada which disproportionately jacks up our gasoline prices compared to the lower 48.. Our NG .. when you guys still needed it went at a discount.. as I've whined on before.. lack of pipelines east .. someone benefit from these imbalances ? .. so I ask who does this all serve.. not the average Johnny Canuck to be sure... And now I fear we have Prime Minister bent on being a delivery boy for US foreign policy.. BMO had a report a few months back showing that Canadians paid on average 20-25% more for equivalent goods stateside.. nary an eyebrow raised.. means a lot more VAT tax though.. Lots smells bad...
