Of course, depression can return to prosparity... but again, what happened in the 30's? Oh thats right. WAR kicked the world out of the depression. Only this time, the war will be with knives and sticks because we can't get the fuel for the tanks.


Maybe, maybe not- there are war machines which do not require petroleum to function- guns, various demolition charges, anti-armor rockets, nuclear ships...ICBM's. If a country cannot use its armor and air power, it is not likely to risk its troops without that support. Long range ballistic missiles don't have that problem, and don't need oil in order to function. The war after this projected oil crash is likely to go nuclear- that is, if that doesn't happen before we run out of oil- then there will be plenty to go around. Confused


Ah yes, but you forget: It takes both electrosity and oil to maintain the machine that produce all those things. Sure the US has a stock of them right now, but that will run out long before the oil crisis is over and done with.

Also, about the troops: I think you'll find that drastic times call for drastic measures. :\
