Between peak oil and climate change, I'm prepared to watch about 2 billion people starve. It won't be pretty, but we have pushed the planet beyond its carrying capacity.

Global Population Reduction: Confronting the Inevitable"

I've been pushing that forever.
All of our biggest problems stem from just having too many people on the planet, which due to ubiquitous American TV, all want to live like Americans, the most rapacious people on earth.

Natural gas liquids aren't crude and condensate.
Corn ethanol isn't, either, nor is tarsands bitumen, nor algae biofuel or coal to liquid.

That reminds me; 10% or so of our gasoline is corn ethanol; the drought is wreaking havoc on the corn crop. That should raise gas prices again, and spark a discussion about food or fuel. Personally, I can cope with the idea of people starving better than I can with an empty
gas tank.

I think abortion IS murder, but I really don't care, because there are too many humans on Earth as it is, so abortion is a good thing as it reduces those numbers.
