Reply #3: shock doctrine

[Juche]

Maybe this is part of some nefarious shock doctrine plan to allow the system to collapse so they can privatize everything. Heritage recommended a 'leninist' strategy to privatize social security back in the 80s. Let things collapse and panic, then push through a privatization plan to eliminate gas taxes, anti-trust legislation & environmental regulations. I wouldn't put it past them.



Peak oil is real. I reject the doomsday scenarios, but it is a fact that we need to address.
