Reply #27: The war is about oil

[BeFree]

Cheap oil. People like cheap and will kill the messenger who says cheap oil is done for.

So no candidiate can even bring up the subject. It will be up to the likes of us to educate the People, and when the time is right, our Democratic President will be able to lay out a plan to get us through the end of cheap oil.

We can find alternatives. We will have to change our lifestyles, to what degree, I haven't a real clue. But the changes can be made easier to deal with when we get the leadership to do so.

This subject has been on my mind for twenty years now, and have seen very little movement toward a solution. However, it is inspiring to see how many here are willing to face the truth.
