Great posts! Are you all coming to the meet up on Sat?
I’d love to know if anyone else has any ideas on how they can “flex their economic muscle”?
It seems to me no one really does this. Or maybe no one thinks these things make any difference?
Regarding the price setting. From what I understand, this is done by OPEC. But the oil companies know we are dependent, so they just charge the higher prices, and keep the same margins.
I don’t believe they are completely innocent bystanders here. And why would they be? They’re in business after all. It just bugs me because I think our Whitehouse is in bed with them.
We really need to get off our dependence on oil.
Does anyone know of any up coming companies that offer alternative energies? Where are they located? What are they offering us? Why can’t we get access to these? Can we invest in them?
I have some marketing work with bio-diesel folks, but it’s just not a scalable alternative.
