So much for Peak Oil. Haven't heard much from them lately - probably having a latte with the Malthus bunch.

Add the peak oil folks to the global warming and overpopulation folks.

The Leftists will game any issue they can think up.

I am always amazed by the power of the free market combined with human innovation.

Its also amazing that Marxists and progressives continue to blind people with the promises of central-planning of our money supply, health-care, education, just to name a few.

from the article:

“the IEA added a scenario in which the industry beats current projections.

...If shale resources turn out to be double current estimates, and the use of electric vehicles erodes demand more than anticipated, prices could stay in a “lower-for-longer” range of $50 to $70 a barrel through to 2040.”

California just raised the gasoline tax again. Any savings one might see at the pump will be offset by the higher taxes in California.

“Peak Oil” was another lie to prop up prices and to discourage more drilling in America. I think it something it was pushed really hard by the Bush crime family in the Saudi royals.

I would dispute the accuracy of their inflation adjustment for the 30's and 40's. In the 40's I was purchasing gas for 17-to-19 cents-per-gallon at a Jenny station. (Although had to crank the handle to pump it.)

In the mid-to-late 40's my family was dirt poor...Having to recover from 6-years of scraping by on a $100 monthly allotment for Dad while he was in the Marine Corps. The adjusted equivalent to current purchasing power is bogus. Even among the poor, gasoline was not an economic burden equal to the burden of $2.50 today!

U.S. to Dominate Oil Markets After Biggest Boom in World History

Now we have an abundance of oil worldwide.

It means that the economy is not doing that great all over the world in other countries with this over supply of oil.

It should bring gasoline prices down.
