this could become a long term financial disease for the USA mainly but also for most other european and asian countries.
oceanie seems to escape more or less the big impact.
the worst curse is the YO-YO going up and down like mad in the oilbizz.

your talking about gas right? people need gas.... people need money.... people are evil....

If you are talking about oil, right now we are to dependand on it we can not survive right now without of it, now money is a necesary evil we have to deal with for now it is no way we can go back to trading goods for goods.

Our fathers before us did this to us and now we are just making this worst for our childrens to live with.

(I am not trying to be phylosofical or anything like that.)

You can see the oil prices surging already, it is the begginning of what is coming: Peak oil. Soon as the oil reserves dwindel, prices will continue to escalate and in America and all the industrialized west there will be economic depression and choas worse than ever before.
