There will be no new administration. Bush will declare marshal law, lock up all muslims, peace activists, gas-price prtesters, posters on this site...

He could do this even before he and the congress dissolved the constitution, and now there is nothing in his way. We're already spitting distance from $150. We could easily be at $200 before election time. The bank melt down will be unstoppable by then, the dollar worthless as anything but toilet paper.

Lots of reasons to istitute marshal law.

The one hope is that Bush will have destroyed the military to such an extent that his orders will be uninforcable, or that the military will finally refuse to obey his orders. But the mayhem that will be unfolding will make many call for the sense of control that marshal law would provide.

Oil will be rationed or simply not available to anyone but the military and perhaps some emergency services.

Cool

DA and SPG began speculating on Shanny's great thread and here we are...back in my neighborhood.

Since the mods gave the green light tp speculate...

Here goes...

You are dead right dohboi !

Bush is not going anywhere.

Martial law, the amero, and food riots will be main news stories...

and all of it...all of it...all of it was triggered on 911.

...Where are you following the prices of oil?.

Three more:

Bloomberg

Barchart

321 Energy

This site charts the spot market. Tapis (Malaysia's ultra-high-quality crude) prices seem to foreshadow what's just around the corner for Nymex:

Upstream Online

Tapis is getting scarily close to $150.

When Bush and Channey leave office, they will become immediately eligible for a trail of high treason. Since there are any number of good reasons to hang both of them, and the nation will probably be in a state of economic devastation by then, Congress, the military and the intelligence services might be quite amiable to it to divert the attention of the rampaging masses.

I think it is much more likely that the neo-cons will be frog marched out into the back yard and shot, than it is that they will usurp the entire government.

Simmons is in an article in the Timesonline this morning talking about the future of oil production. If this is anywhere near true, the future is going to get real ugly, real fast. I still can't see it dropping as low as he is saying at that time.

Quote:

Matt Simmons, chief executive of Simmons & Company, a Houston energy consultancy, said that global oil production had peaked in 2005 and was set for a steep decline from present levels of about 85 million barrels per day. “By 2015, I think we would be lucky to be producing 60 million barrels and we should worry about producing only 40 million,” he told The Times.

Can you imagine the price of oil at 40mb a day! By then the country would be in a depression.

That sounds completely insane!

I'm willing to bet anything that we won't have all liquids at 60mbpd in 2015, and certainly not at 40!

That's a decline rate of 7 % and 10 % respectively. When the trend is 0 % decline for the last 4-5 years. If supply had grown faster we'd see higher post peak declines than the current plateau will result in.

If they won't impeach Bush and Cheney now, they sure as hell will get a free pass after they leave office.
