4. That's the whole point
When Cheney and Bush are talking about Peak Oil to excuse profiteering, and are standing directly in the way of alternatives, you know something else is going on.

Perhaps my textbook was incorrect...but there it was, the glaring official word of on high(paraphrasing):

"At current consumption levels, the world's oil supplies will be exhausted in 20 years, with natural gas lasting approximately 70 years."

Mind you, I don't like getting involved with this argument since passions run so high(and facts so thin), and because I don't support the use of oil in any way.

OTOH, more and more evidence is coming out that this is all a scam.
