The tax issue is long past being all that important. Peak oil appears to be happening right now. No manipulation of the tax code is going to make more oil magically appear.

Besides, such games are only playable with US companies. US oil production peaked in 1972. US oil just isn't relevant anymore.

Global peak oil is now.

Maybe not to you or to the world, but it sure as heck is to *me.*

US oil just isn't relevant anymore.

We only produce about 5.5 million barrels per day. Third largest producer in the world. No longer relevant?
