It would be irresponsible of me to assume that what i am about to link together would have any degree of truth to it; suffice it to say, i am just putting a number of different economic, environmental, and Bushco behaviors together to see towards what direction they are pointing.
Oil prices are skyrocketing even though big-Oil has been using their huge pool of enormous wealth to maintain subsidies keeping the price artifically lowered in the US. And yet Big Oil is still generating obscene profits, recapitalizing their US dollars into Euros in order to be better prepared for the dramatic Iran-Euro Bourse advent in a bit over two months.
There is evidence that peak oil production is past, and that the development of the assumed resources mixed in coal shale and oil sands require no less than a price of $80 a barrel to facilitate. At that price a non-subsidized gallon of gas in the US would run around $4.80 for regular unleaded. Such a 200% increase would cripple the infrastructure past the breaking point. In order to maintain the subsidy BigOil has streamlined its production, although that has strained the total gasoline supply availability. There is an expected 14¢ per gallon price increase in the next couple of weeks.
The US stock market is falling due to the long term projected losses against both the price of energy and the recently released projected figures for the overall increase in actual indebtedness of the US government and its population. Within five years the US will be required to spend more than 25% of its GDP on paying off debt, mostly to foreign governments and entities (at 50% we would be acting like most of the third world countries).
While attempting to secure control of the Middle Eastern oil reserves the US has discovered that military action only promotes its own uroboros spiralling escalation. Eventually we would have to use nuclear weapons, then send in special teams (can you see the enslaved impoverished dissenters of Bushco in that role?) to control the oil flows and refineries in the wake of the near permanent destruction of the populations.
2005 was yet another hottest year ever, with a winter in which records are broken for constant rain in the northern parts of US while records are broken for droughts in the southern. These two climatic problems spell doom for massive agri-biz in terms of available water resources for production. Combining the increase costs of energy and food production the US will slide closer to a great depression.
The tactics used by US forces in Iraq are nothing short of practice for using US troops in the US to control the population and quell all dissent. Bushco has been developing strategies and plans that will empower it to declare martial law, disband Congress, and use military might to establish the necessary limited elite ownership society that it will represent. As the environment continues to collapse, as the economy implodes from its own lack of value, as the President declares he is the law and must follow only his own thoughts rather than any other written laws, as the MSM realizes its only hope is to become prostrated synchophants(CNN hiring FoxNews like clones), as US corporate entities move assets to their international offices---then we have the need to be governed by a police state. Well, then about 28% of the population will feel they need it.
