Well, if you believe there is a finite amount of oil, you may be right but what if the theory that the earth replenishes oil is the correct one?

I’m not sure about either theory. That oil is like coal and is a fossil or are those pools of oil are produced abioticly from the earths mantle. Both theories make some sense, but, neither can be proved empirically.

Well, if you believe there is a finite amount of oil, you may be right but what if the theory that the earth replenishes oil is the correct one? Bingo! Between the proven reserves being underestimated by a factor of about ten and the difficult of extracting domestic oil overestimated by a factor of about two, libs and other commies have plenty of excuses as to why we can't take care of our own house!
