Default Peak Oil - counterargument


Some people had a love affair with working in the textile biz. That's
history. When's the last time you were able to find a dress shirt made in
this country? I don't mean a custom made shirt - I mean a pile of shirts,
in packages, in a store. Change is a bitch. Oh well.


You keep coming up with these absolutely perfect examples, Doug. Change is
a bitch, no doubt. The high cost of domestic labor is what caused the
domestic textile industry to crumble and be sent overseas. It's why you
can't by a domestically made mass-produced dress shirt. Market forces. The
high cost of fuel is what will change the buying choices of American car
buyers. Market forces again.
