Coal to liquid conversion has high CO2 emissions. It will work for a while but we can’t triple the economy this way.

So we need to put the CO2 into lots of soft drinks, and grow plants, plants love plant food.

Most knowledgeable people say that the coal supply would last the USA for another 200 years. Generating more oil by many times over the amount in all the Saudi reserves.

That's a political issue, not a physical problem.
