American Deaths and Deaths Around the World Caused by High Oil Prices

The failure to produce additional oil and drill in offshore and onshore areas known to have oil has caused a terrific run-up in the price of oil.

The question is this: how has the near tripling of oil prices dealt tragedy in the lives of people.

How many Americans have died so that caribou can live? How many from other countries have been sacrificed on the altar of environmental love for any species except the human species?

Food prices have soared -- hunger, malnutrition, birth defects and deficiencies are the results of malnutrition. Death is the result of starvation.

Fuel prices have soared -- how many have lost livelihoods, had deliveries curtailed because of transport costs?

Heating/cooling prices have soared -- how many have died of cold in the winter or intolerable heat in the summer?

Human beings or polar bears? Caribou or Care for Humans?

My wife asked this morning whether the Saudis, and/or Iranians, and/or Russians, or other oil producers, are funding Greenpeace and the other eco-Nazi groups that prevent us from developing our own oil, creating an artificial shortage. Has anyone looked into this?

[xzins]

I haven’t.

I have noticed that the big Foundations fund the PBS shows on environmentalism.....to include Rockefellar and other oil foundations.

as stalin said,

one loss of a human is a tragedy,

the loss of millions, a statistic.

human deaths never bothered leftists, as the 100,000,000

deaths of the 20th c show.

This is Peak Oil. Our political leaders could have done something meaningful in the past 30 years and they spent $5 billion a year or more with no results. That is 30 years wasted, lost time. Now it still has to be done, but it won’t be painless. Prepare for pain.

I still can’t buy ethanol in Wasilla. What gives ? i would like to run on E —85.

[RightWhale]

We don’t do ethanol blends in Alaska. Importing ethanol is too expensive. Ordinary gasoline will have to do.

Henry Ford told us 75 years ago. We would not hear him. It’s time to pay.

Excellent question. Something our so called "Journalists" should be looking into.

so the answer is forcing new energy resources by breaking the backs of the poor? so the answer is forcing new energy resources by sending US cash to nations that support terrorism? so the answer is forcing new energy resources by endangering world peace? The cost of not having a tactical solution is way too high. How many people must die, how much sickness, disease, war and poverty must we propagate before come to our senses, or is sickness, disease, war and poverty what the other side really wants?

Are you aware that 30 years ago a man had a grant to do ethenol in Delta. What happened to the project.

[RightWhale]

Yes, we might as well plan on the worst. It might not get that bad, but it will get uncomfortable. When the Gas Pipeline project collapses, which is possible, a lot of real estate bargains should begin to appear. We will all be living in 8000 sq ft palaces and heating one room.

[RightWhale]

Don’t know about that project, but the fertilizer plant is shut down until they get a supply of natural gas.

MONDAY, APRIL 10, 2006, PIRACICABA, Brazil,But Brazilian officials and business executives say the ethanol industry would develop even faster if the United States did not levy a tax of 54 cents a gallon, or about 14 cents a liter, on all imports of Brazilian cane-based ethanol.

Every crisis on the map is a direct result of the energy crisis. If you like $5/gal, Thank Congress.

“fertilizer plant is shut down”

The Union Chemical plant in Kenai??

Good points. It would be something that I know the KGB of the 1970s/1980's would do so I wouldn't put it past them now. You can also add into it Cleon Skoussen's 1963 list of Communist goals, you really have to think. Yes, I'd like to see an investigation myself but Congress is too busy chasing the oil companies around.

The State project shut down last winter. Everybody laid off. No gas.
