Oil is also used for mining raw materials like coal and metals
and used for construction . The way it is set up I believe, you need oil to build ,operate & maintain any type of power plant. I heard that one barrel of the stuff converted into energy is equivalent to 25000 man hours of labor, that is one man working full time for 12 years, for $100 (once the oil is refined and distributed). Don't know how we're going to get out of this one.Also the people in power are helpless dealing with PO it seems, it is as if the captain of the Titanic decided against warning passengers and crew from the impending doom, hoping that if no one noticed maybe the problem would go away.
