Howdy Thomas, One must understand there has been an irrevocable change since WW2. Now the focus is on melding and merging the world populace in phases. We are somewhere between the 1st and 2nd phase which can be described as socio market spheres like UCM and NAFTA. Energy is one of the major components for the success of this planning. It is being used both as a triggering mechanism and a lure. Forget the wealth gained by the few from petro sales. Like the stock market, it is being allowed because it serves the purpose. You may consider the " swinging di*ks" (SD's) of Wall Street and big petro as expendable. Keep your eyes on Putin. Watch his tactics. Notice he permitted a few Oligs to gain much before he had them jailed. The US can be energy independent when you think about it. All that's necessary is to convert from autos getting 20 mpg to 100 mpg and turn off all the lights at night. Ask yourself what is preventing this and why an energy policy has not been made. It's because it does not serve the interests of the players in the great game. The SD's like Buffett may appear as guiding the economy but the real power lies in the hands of the people guiding the bureaucracy inside the beltway. Richard
