Supply and demand! Simple as that. If we don't have it, we can't use it.

Very correct. So we buy it and turn it in to a very good lifestyle. You
think you would be employed if we ran out of energy? How many buildings and
bridges would be designed and built? We require it for our economy. How
are you going to supply the energy to run this country and the economic
engine?

Yes, I'd be employed. There would be just as much work designing new,
more energy efficient buildings. There would be new technologies
sprouting up to meet energy requirements using alternative means. A
novel idea, our economy could suffice on NEW technology. The right wing
just wants to keep us in the dark ages, as always. Hell, when motor
cars first started appearing, people NEVER thought they'd replace the
horse. Especially on farms. How many horses do you see on working,
profitable farms today?

You better take an economics course. We would have a depression at least as
big as 1929.

Have you heard of the Olduvai Theory? I'm not saying it's accurate, but
it does provide food for thought.

Oh, please. I BEG you. Show me ONE piece of literature that says
anything of the sort. That's a stretch even for YOU. Why would there be
a depression? There may be some down time involved, because the
government would rather put it's money into plodding along with the
same old technology (fossil fuels), rather than fund research and
development of new technologies.

But, there would be new firms working on new ways to do things.
Was there a depression as big as 1929 when there was a previous oil
shortage? Do you not think there are modern safeguards in place to
protect us against that, even IF it were to happen?

As I said, you better take an economics course. There was a small recession
when the price quickly rose up during the 70's. Lots of Silicon Valley was
out of work as well as a lot of the rest of the country. That was just
cost, not supply. There was a supply problem. Remember the odd / even days
for gas and the long lines. That is nothing compared to a 60% lack of
energy supplies. Most every manufacturing job in the country will be gone
while the search for energy reigns supreme.

Wouldn't matter. If we ran out of energy, I'll guess half this country's
population would be dead within a short time.
