Reply #79: I don't have to "turn back time"

[ProudDad]

The whole phantom house of cards called the "global economy" is built on a sea of cheap oil.

The perversion of an economy you're so strenuously defending is not much more than a line of ocean going ships carrying crap to be sold in wal-mart traveling in a very long supply line between China and the U.S. West Coast ports (soon to be the non-union ports in Mexico) on that sea of cheap oil.

The days of cheap oil are done.

Your phony "global economy" will sink into the sunset of Peak Oil in the very near future.

Those of us who prepare by re-creating and re-energizing our local economies, economies that don't need your myth of the "global economy" to save them will survive.

The grasshoppers among you. playing on your fiddles the plaintive tune "global economy, global economy" will freeze during the long winter to come...

But I wish you the best, really I do...
