Something to think about....The Federal Government is preparing for war in the Persian Gulf. It has been announced that they are stockpiling oil in the event of a shortage...A stockpile of 700 million barrels of oil sounds like a lot , but the U.S. uses something like14 million barrels of oil a day, and half of that comes from overseas...even a partial disruption of the supply could mean at the least, price increases which will make a mess of the budget.
What plans does this city have in the event of an oil shortage?...nearly all the transport in this city runs on petroleum-police cars, fire trucks, MTC Buses, school buses etc. Ken Avidor Kingfield _______________________________________ Minneapolis Issues Forum - A Civil City Civic Discussion - Mn E-Democracy Post messages to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subscribe, Unsubscribe, Digest option, and more: http://e-democracy.org/mpls
