Hi all, this is my first post so please bear with me here.
I wanted to bring the real reason we are dependant on Oil. Most people have the oppinion that fuel is all that oil is about. This is not the case.
Plastics!!!! The real profit from oil is little plastic pellets. Now think about this a second......
Just use your home as an example. What is made of plastics in your home alone.
Your TV's
Your Computers
Your Kitchen appliances and utensils
Some furnature....
And what about the function of your home. The wiring in your home...The plumbing.
Well the list is pretty big here.
Now think about your food, how much of it is packaged in plastics?

Needless to say that if you truely wanted to get away from dependancy on oil you would have to live in a log cabin with an outhouse.

There is more here to go such as your car. What about hospitals?

I just wanted to pass this along to those that think that oil is just used for fuel. Fuel actually has a lower profit than the plastic made from oil.
I hope people will think about all the implications here
Thanks all

The real dependancy on oil is the QUICK, EASY PROFIT

We've had solutions for years to solve the fuel 'crisis', BUT, there's SO much more easy money to be extracted quickly from the earth that the banksters won't stop until they've squeezed out every drop of profit.

Only then will the next generation of energy sources become available.

At the moment I just dont see anyway out of it.
What other recorse could we use? Are there any alternatives for todays industry?
