Hi All, or anyone interested,
That is one of the very few PEAK OIL NEWS items I read these days. Awhile ago I read about peak oil and from the first look I began looking deeper, and deeper, and deeper into peak oil.
To sum up, if you don't want to read the latest NEWS on peak oil, I can say that the age of Oil is passing into history and a new age, with less, and less, and less oil USE is on the way in.
As to the reasons for the passing of the OIL AGE into history there are many and much of the NEWS explaining these reasons are contradictory - in the extreme.
Go to the gas station, I know you will, and fill up your car, or your truck, and know, just know it, know that you are paying more per mile than what you would pay if you were filling up your electric car with electricity.
That is the bottom line here, and 10 cents per mile is 80% higher than 2 cents per mile which is the current average savings from Oil power to Electric power.
Fill up your car.
Know the facts.
Before long everyone will know the facts, as the NEWS become real, and as Oil production lowers so as to cause Oil prices to go higher.
I didn't read the rest of the NEWS linked above before beginning this writing project, but I am confident that it won't spell out the facts as I am doing right now.
How much time did it take for human beings to stop traveling with horses and begin traveling with cars?
How much time will it take for human beings to stop traveling at a cost of 10 cents per mile and begin traveling at a cost of 2 cents per mile?
Oil prices will go up, sure, that is the NEWS. Every step of the way up is another step pushing the move from Oil power to Electric power and the margin of VICTORY for Electric power is already 80% cheaper.
Then, if you are thinking in terms of the stability of the price of Electricity, you can know the facts here too.
Right now the Electric Companies in our Fascist Dictatorship (behind the thin veil of "democracy") sell Electricity at very high prices because they own the monopoly. They can price whatever they want, and you have to pay it. You can't choose BRAND X. You have to choose BRAND Y.
The proof of this involves making electricity at home, with your own Solar Panels, or your own Wind Generators, and then trying to sell excess Electric power to your neighbor - at half price.
Try it.
That is competition in action and that causes the price of electricity to go down - not up.
Not only does higher Oil prices drive the Electric car market faster and faster, not only that, the Solar Panel (and Wind, which is solar) market drives Electric power prices down - so the gap widens as time goes by.
Right now there are a number of start up companies selling Solar Panels to people who want to pay less for Electric power. You call them up, you pay less for electricity - guaranteed. That is now happening because Solar Electric Power is cheaper BY FAR compared to Electric power produced by the Fascist State Dictatorship stuff - unless, and this is a big possibility, the Fascist State Dictatorship stuff is still very cheap to make, but the price is way, way, way, and way above the cost to produce it - in other words they could be raping the consumers by jacking up the price - because they can - because they have a monopoly (sort of) and because they have the license for raping the consumer.
LLC, or Limited Liability Corporation, has one legal meaning for regular people (consumers, workers, whatever makes a regular person regular) and another meaning for PG and E or Edison, or Goldman Sacks, or The Federal Reserve (LLC).
That is called: Dictatorship - that is not what was once known as democracy (where political power was once known as everyone is the king, and no one is legally above anyone else, "king in his castle" stuff - once upon a time, and I can show you the proof, the evidence, and the accurate historical record - it is an up side down world these days - black means white, good means bad, etc.).
So, read the link, I'm going to finish it, and see if you find the whole truth, or if you find some things, vital things, missing.
