Unless you’ve been living under a rock for a long time you must have noticed how the cost of everything seems to have taken an upward turn. A steep one. We have a financial crisis looming on almost every front with mortgage rates rising and the cost of borrowing going up with them.
So I have to wonder at the cause of it all. Not the cause cited by the big banks and the government; as we all know by now, governments tell you what they want you to hear, which is not necessarily the truth. The problem is that if you break it all down there is only one real reason behind it all.
For sure, the global warming insanity probably has something to do with it, but global warming is all smoke and mirrors that will hopefully keep everyone blinded while the real reason goes un-noticed. As it stands global warming is working on a two pronged attack; Firstly it keeps everyone from realising the real reason for the monetary problems, and secondly it helps us cut down on our use of oil.
Yep, I’m back to oil again. Take a look at the charts Inflation Data and you should get an idea what I’m talking about.
In 1998 a barrel of oil cost $15.35. At the end of 2007 it had risen to $64.92.
The simple fact is that oil is starting to run out. We are not producing as much as in previous years, and yet the demand is rising quickly as China and India ‘Come on Line’. But the governments don’t want to alarm you. Oh no. They don’t want to tell you about the chaos that will ensue when the oil actually runs out.
Human kind has a one shot chance of survival on this planet and global warming doesn’t enter into the equation: No Oil equals No advanced civilizations, and to make that worse, No Oil also equals No chance of finding an alternative.
