Sorry but things are a little bad now but will get FAR worse. Once oil really runs dry there will be next to no trade in it. Countries will horde it for national interest reasons.

Plan for the future.

I agree with Flan, the only way to have a healthy economy is if we return to a nation that imports raw materials (oil one of them) and exports finished goods.

Fuck free trade. I want Fair Trade.

I don't mind using our own raw materials as long as we are keeping ahead of others in new technologies to replace them. Fair trade the real way, we win. Not the boulderite give the columbian blanket maker a chance.

Soooo nynco- we should only import oil and not produce it. Soooo we should totally rely on imports- i.e. foreign sources for our energy needs and produce -0- Zerooo. This is a recipe for slavery. Our slavery. Wait- I see your evil plan- we suck dry the foreign sources- since we're not producing any energy- until they are on their knees before us. Then we begin again to produce, wildly inflating prices!!!! FANTASTIC! You're much smarter than I took you for!

Taking away a name such as the late 1930's isolationist America First Party, I would love a party that put America first.
