If we’re addicted to oil, our twelve-step program should begin with admitting that we have a problem. As the price of oil creeps higher, finding new energy sources is more important than ever. But the search for alternatives, combined with environmental disruptions, is putting new pressures on other essentials like food. There are some things that are going well in the world. Right now, the economy is not one of them.

We get 30% of our domestic oil from off-shore drilling of the Gulf Coast (Texas, New Orleans…), and that is just the sections that are allowed. That is right, 30% of our domestic oil. In the beginning, those against the Gulf Coast Ocean drilling never imagine that much. So, consider how much we could get from the Pacific and Atlantic coasts. And that isn’t just oil, but, also, natural gas. Drilling will not solve the problem but it will sure make us less dependent of the lovely Middle East.

WOW, that was sick. best video of its kind ive ever seen… and just cus oil is trading below 60 bucks right now doesnt mean this is not still relevant. we’ve witnessed the dress rehearsal, and in couple years, we’ll be dealing with the real thing. hold on tite.

I think they’re trying to say it came from dead things in general and not just dinosaurs.

More truth about oil and oil prices can be found by doing a YouTube seach for Lindsey Williams.

Oil is the global currency….

Oil didn’t come from decaying dinosaurs… seriously.

Oil is down right now but it will never, NEVER stay this low. Peak Oil is real and a major problem facing the world. The price may stay deflated for a year or so because of our sagging economy but rest assured it will soar upward big time.

Short-sighted, you are… The direction of oil is UP. WAY WAY WAY UP. It has been happening for years now. So I don’t even need to say “just you wait.” As soon as the recession starts to level out, watch oil start REALLY picking up the pace. We WILL be wishing oil were back down at $147 come 2010.

great video, i like how you synced everything with the music, justice rock


goldensleeves on 17 October, 2008 at 4:11 am #

Agreed, reddul. But it’s even MORE depressing if we ignore it.

What do you mean they run of magnets with no eletricty? All electricy has a magnetic field and vis versa. They are the same thing.

I feel the focus on cars is a little overblown. Importing food is probably the number one misuse of oil in the USA. SUVs are bad, but the lumbering trucks going from california to who knows were full of frozen strawberries… now thats wasteful. I would suggest getting at least 30% of your food from a local source. So if you can check out your local farmers market, make a few valuable friends. Also supporting local farmers is a great way to keep capitol in your local system. :)

Agreed, The economic side is still being shaken. Mid next year all the cobwebs should be out. Then watch oil rise and rise it will! Food will obviously also rise. We need Hydrogen cars / solar - we need them now!


feistycharley on 25 October, 2008 at 6:56 am #

Fantastic vid! Most people don’t realize the impact bio-fuels have on food prices. And who’s bright idea is it to cure our oil dependence by providing more oil? It’s like “curing” a heroin addict by giving him more heroin.

godlessTV on 28 October, 2008 at 6:48 pm #

how? Did you even watch the video? Or are you just looking for a reason to be offended? Which part of this video is “anti-capitalist”?


BanjoNaps on 29 October, 2008 at 2:16 pm #

That is still WAAAAAY above what it was just a few years ago. This is a cycle, its growing more unstable each time it runs through. This low price is just killing more investment.

I’m not interested in the short term bullshit like what happened this summer or what is happening now. They are crests and trows of the waves. When all of the assets being shook loose from the stock crash cycle out, then this dollar rally will end oil hasn’t really started rising yet. Give it time.


feastguy101 on 30 October, 2008 at 10:07 am #

you were saying? it’s below 50$ and dropping. a stupid bubble, that’s all. sorry, the world isn’t about to end.


feastguy101 on 1 November, 2008 at 12:45 am #

anti capitalist propaganda.


stingray300m on 2 November, 2008 at 3:38 am #

they need to stop with monopelised profit bullshit no eletrik cars which need power from the power companys or corn which takes land to grow or hydergen compressed tanks which is not affordabul inprove on fuel cells instade of talking about it bring on the perendev motor it runs off of magnets no eletricty or fuel magnitisem its very simple but when money gets in the way simplecatey goes to hell and money motavation skyrockets


reddul on 2 November, 2008 at 10:26 pm #
