- The Perils of Petro-ization
  Posted by Jon from New York Times
  in fact, 77 percent of the world’s oil reserves are held by national oil companies with no private equity, and there are 13 state-owned oil companies with more reserves than ExxonMobil, the largest multinational oil company. The popular perception in the United States is that if leaders of oil countries nationalize their oil, they are bucking a global trend toward privatization. In reality, nationalized oil is the trend.

  Do you frequently find yourself getting irritable or anxious at work? Do you spend most of your day reacting to immediate crises rather than focusing on stuff that's long term or that you prefer doing? Are you finding there's a big difference between what you say is most important to you in your life and how you actually allocate your time and energy?

  Posted by VincebusEruptum from Scholarsandrogues.wordpress
  ...Not only is the carbon economy directly causing global heating, it is also responsible for the oil dependency that has led to the decay of the United States' national authority. The only way forward out of our morass is...

Jeff, Jeff, Jeff,
First of all have you ever been to Madrid or London. Al Qaida will kill any Jew, Christian or Hindu they run across and then reload. A border is not a good defense system for terrorism. Second, the war and the value of the dollar have weakened us. It is just peculiar that it wasn’t Jimmy Carter who did it to us this time. Third of all the US owns the Stanley Cup (ever been to Detroit ?). Forth where is Robert Rubin when we need him most !

I’m not sure how’d they feel about adding themselves to the top Al Qaida target list, taking on our ginormous deficit and having to wipe the floor with us on Friday nights in hockey.
One thing I don’t understand is if America is such a great country – why our currency has lost 1/3 of its value in the past 7 years against the Canadian dollar? Anyone? Anyone? My American buck used to be worth $1.55 CDN and now it’s barely even (on a good day).
You’re entitled to your own opinion (if you’re civil) but not your own facts.
