NO BISCUIT FOR CAR 3

Much ado has been made of the Fracking Revolution, whereas if you wrap the flag around you real tight, tap your heels together three times, say “I THINK I can!”, then you will be granted Energy Independence.  Because that is how math works.  You use 20 million barrels of oil a day, produce six, but if your production doubles to 12, well, THAT is energy independence.  Not importing as much, the Fracking Fag Miracle.  America, where Bitches Power is real, Diversity Is Our Strength and LESS Oil Imports equals self-sufficiency.  Actually, we are close, just one economic implosion away.

*

Prior to oil almost touching $150, we used 20 million barrels of oil a day.  Over the course of the Great Recession, we dipped to about 18 million.  I haven’t seen any up to date figures, but given ethanol use and the global production slow-down, I wonder if we are down to 15 or 16.  Just a bit more unemployment, homelessness and retail closings, hell, we might actually get down to only needing twelve million barrels of oil a day.  There you’d see actual energy independence.  Of course, the economy would have to be so flattened, one wonders how oil would be delivered through the riots.

*

Just as natural death from old age will save you from needing to commit suicide, energy independence will occur after we would need the oil, since there is no more economic activity needing energy.  Now, call me pessimistic, but as the entire economy swirls down the toilet, wouldn’t that make it a little harder to get gasoline?  I know that you think cheap gasoline is an American birthright.  That is the only reason you reject socialism, since you see the taxes Europeans put on gas.  Drive Long Or Die!

*

Okay, forget about imported oil.  Forget about Petrodollar Death, as at least there is a chance that danger may ( repeat, MAY ) have already been countered by TPTB.  Perhaps gasoline always will be available, at least the raw commodity price, if not at cheap prices then at somehow affordable prices.  You might actually see a long slow collapse of the Happy Motoring paradigm.  But, like everything else, the government can still screw all that up for you once they force their ham fisted “solutions” onto you.  First up, ALWAYS, much higher taxes.  You can take that to the bank.

*

Just as the government does not care in the slightest that you cannot afford their property taxes, they could give two wet farts if they charge too much on gasoline.  They need it, so you get to pay it.  As we discovered with cigarette taxes, our Land Of The Free taxes were HIGHER than the Evil Socialist next door ( when they were smuggling cigarettes down into New York ).  The Politically Correct Forces Of Good decided that henceforth and ever more, cigarettes were bad ( as are large sodas, since all coast dwelling Yuppies can afford bottled water from Fiji ).

*

The government saw dollar signs.  It raised taxes.  A lot.  Less people smoked, so tax revenues dropped, which meant the taxes had to be raised, again.  Now, given the Agitators dislike for poor people causing harm to the environment ( it is encouraged that rich people keep polluting, or at least consuming rare commodities like specialized honey ), can you see the next Big Issue Of The Day being gasoline consumption being demonized?  You know, to Save Da Planet, Yo!  The Beautiful People have their Prius or Volts ( I would say “Tesla’s”, but I think they are all catching fire and dying ).

*

But Deplorables have big redneck trucks, or old beat up gas guzzlers because that is all they can afford.  The Right Thinkers can pay more per gallon, so Soccer Moms, college professors and Black Welfare Protesters ( there will obviously be subsidized gasoline for Dem Opresseded Peoplez ) can save the environment but not be inconvenienced while doing so.  The working poor get pounded in the ass by Gaia and Al Gore.  But they can always get strip searched or mugged while taking public transportation, so no sympathy there.

*

Greenies have always been pulled primarily from the ranks of the Marxists.  Protestors against nuclear power were correct in their fears, but the whole strategy was to ONLY disarm the US.  Cutting their teeth on turning their own government into the feminized victim, gun control was the next logical step.  As was Political Correctness.  Since meddling like a village matchmaker is their hobby, they cannot stop themselves from trying to save the world in their image of a biology-free zone.  There is always another cause to rally to.  Today, hot and bothered over the environment, your freedom of movement is the next target.

*

The Clueless Do-Gooders move in chanting and screaming naked at the sky, imploring Earth Mother to save them from White Racist Males, and the government jumps in and raises taxes.  A lot.  Then gasoline tax revenues fall, so they must raise them again.  Then, toll roads.  Then, drone surveillance to enforce the tolls, followed by random road blocks to check for Emissions Test stickers and functioning Toll Payment GPS devices.  Hollywood will start featuring cars that are battery powered or more efficient, driven only by Blacks or mixed race couples or Butt Pirates.

*

What I’m trying to convey here is that if we don’t get sudden gasoline shortages and price hikes, we’ll get government intervention to reduce use, as seen with the Green camouflage tax on diesel under Obammy when he changed emission standards.  Either way, even prior to Total Collapse, your ‘Murican right to drive will be compromised.  He who recognizes and changes his lifestyle in anticipation will be better served than one who totally ignores the danger, because “everyone NEEDS to drive nowadays”, and just blindly stays with Business As Usual.  You can pretend we will never run out of oil.  Or you can plan for it.
