    Posted by Lucky 4 days, 7 hours ago to Why We Need Austrian Economics
    I like this article.

    Now I do have a soft spot for Milton Friedman, there are so many youtubes where he demolishes questions from the Keynsians/ leftists, he does it so well, with such politeness and cool that, well for me, it lifts the heart, puts a smile on the face and a tear in the eye. Maybe I like emotional arguments. Greenspan? I can do without.

    The financial crisis of 2008 is now to me a blur, if MF got it wrong, so be it. The Chicago School could not condemn when it should as did the Austrian School.

    Looking at what is going on today brings on the same deja vu, we have been here before.
    One big improvement step would be to abolish the Fed, easy to say but so many have fingers in the pie.

    “It will take new exploration to open more.”
    How about ANWAR , coastal waters off west coast and Gulf of America US Federal land. Exploration has been stifled , and been taken hostage from the Greennsquad. Oh and yes go Nuke go fusion go static go Nikola Tesla

    Yes his observations of a massive shift is accurate , he chooses the old guard using the fear based , scarcity cartel OPEC colluding to control supply to maximize price and suppress economic growth .

    Still laughing over most of them, absolutely hit the mark with all. The ones I didn't laugh at were too close to home, like Trump talking ceasefire with Dems. Enjoyed them just the same. Thanks OUC!

    Actually, the number of years "Peak Oil" was SO WRONG is the one thing that holds me back from buying in...

    But output matters. If your mine is pushing out oil, you don't throttle it. And the GOVT is using WORD GAMES (illegal? people are not illegal!)... They now refer to ALL of it as a group (distillates or whatever). But they are Combining LNG,WTI,etc. All as "Energy" as they speak. Which obfuscates
    the fact that NG has been found, and we are better at capturing it (not just burning it off). Versus having found more oil. Again, I can't quickly find his graph, but he is showing that a LOT of the old well locations topped out years ago and we are riding them down.

    It will take new exploration to open more.

    And Again... The odds we keep finding more oil, deeper and deeper. (And I just heard that old wells have been checked, and they are producing oil again...)... So this is potentially hopeful.

    Regardless. I truly believe we will not be safe until we get Nuclear in the 80-90% range of our power needs...

    I liked the detail data that the writer puts in the article, and his observation of some of the likely results, but,
    as you said, only someone without an understanding of how the rest of the world actually operates comes to
    his conclusion.

    I dispute the claim of attacks on Russian oil infrastructure. As well as the US becoming a pirate state. But…. Excerpt In just 90 days, the US has executed an energy blitzkrieg decades in the making:
    Hundreds of strikes on Russian tankers and refineries
    Disrupting a third of China's oil and LNG supply
    Capturing the largest oil reserves on the planet
    Establishing a global naval blockade from the Arctic to the Indian Ocean
    And in the process, kidnapped and assassinated two heads of state. We are witnessing the transition of the United States from an empire into a lawless Pirate State, and the birth of what I call the Petrogas-dollar or LNG-Dollar.


    The rest are MAGA.

    Yes the author appears to have TDS, his description of the brilliant plan To take Oils control away from the Deep state has upset him. He does explain it pretty well. Controlled Demolition of the old guard.

    There will also be a long lag on switching to alternative (non-hydrocarbon) sources of energy.
    Most efficient source known today is nuclear which is probably a decade away.
    Coal (also a hydrocarbon) should be the energy source that is cheapest (with current
    technology) and can provide continuous power for up to a century without significant
    pollution effects.
    Just get the moron parasites out of the way and prices will provide incentives for new
    energy technology.

    Hello Capt.
    To Counter your counter. Maybe traditional oil production is down due to the market. Shale is a Quicker payback ,money flows to the highest IRR. Keep in mind the industry has benefited from Scarcity vs Abundance narrative. ThinQ of the insane regulations and hurdles to produce wells. Anwar , offshore CaliROTnia the gulf of America all have vast oil reserves. Peak oil has been declared since 1970 ,56 yrs later and Finally oil will be decentralized. Biden’s handlers drained the SPR because they choked the oil industries production with the green new scam. As he was told to do so triggering the worst inflation with COVID and his FED corruption system . The SPR, Trump will fill it by this time next year.. Global warning was never a concern just more fear tactics to manipulate the slaves.

    Actually he wants both those things, gas dollars and the American system. England's pretty much done now unless they have more tricks up their sleeves.
    They flew home as commoners with their tails between their legs the other day.

    I thought the royals had their own planes, guess not !

    What Trump wants to be permanent is the necessity of holding US dollars
    by all other countries because they need them to buy hydrocarbon fuels.
    That's MAGA.
    (Unfortunately it also supports the existing bankster cartel system, but
    hopefully Trump will have time to stop that parasitic system.
    Better to be enslaved by English speaking banksters instead of Chinese?)

    Excellent collection, as always, OUC!
