I think this is the beginnings of an economy based on perpetual growth and fossil fuel energy running headlong into geological energy constraints. Basically I see an undulatory downward path for the rest of my life. From here out, I think any rallies in our economic condition are going to be met with spiking commodity prices that knock us right back down.

Thanks for the link, Pops. So much of this stuff has been discussed and debated before. It is good to go back and re-read those opinions instead of rehashing everything again. Cheers. _________________ The organized state is a wonderful invention whereby everyone can live at someone else's expense.

Kingcoal -- An excellent point indeed about the subsidized highways. I had never thought of it in that light before. Unfortunately here in Houston we've been going backwards and removing some rail lines to expand highways. But I have seen a rail line going sw towards the Mexican border being revamped. Maybe a little hope there.
