Middle East Oil Dependency and Peace and Riding...

True hurts... Americans are Middle East Oil dependants... people kill over
the control of oil... but the only way to become non dependent is by sucking
every drop of their oil first... ours second... a Middle East with no oil
just sand is a peaceful land... like what's to fight for??? mercy there's
enough sand to go around and then some...

So ride hard and fast... forget miserly MPG rates... burn more Middle East
fuel for peace today... it's good down to the very last drop!!!

I live in America. America has no problems except for idiots obsessing
over the bullshit they've been spoonfed from watching too much TV and
lazy bastards looking for a handout. But hey it's their life to
mis-spend. I know mine is worth much more than that.

If America starts to suck I'll move to Europe. Already have their
citizenship.

If the entire world blows up tomorrow then what are you obsessing
over? It's all gonna end soon anyways.

In the meantime you can stop crossposting every single thread you
originate to three groups, unless it has to do with reeky and
sportbikes and the bay area.

 

Democrats all!

The Democrats hardly feel that whining for a handout is "misspent"....its
their life's work for cryin out loud.

A Republican!

If America starts to suck....I'll help fix it. Of course...that means if we
elect a democrat to the office of President, I will vote republican...twice!

why not? Everyone else has been doing it lately, maybe its the new "in"
thing?

 

Although supply and demand of oil is truly a world market, most of
your oil comes from Canada and Mexico. At $45.00 per barrel we have
lots to sell you.

Well, not as much as you might hope.

 

Tribal gods, just like 6000 years ago.

 

Although supply and demand of oil is truly a world market, most of

America imports 16% of it's oil from Canada... but at $45.00 there is no
more cheap oil... we use to pay 30 dollars for a 42 gallon barrel of
crude...

Canada is selling crude that should be used to fuel it's own economic
grow... at this rate you'll never have the Canadian dollar rise against the
US greenback... you like being in our shadow eh???

How much oil does Canada left to sell??? estimates put that figure at 4,500
million barrels of crude... compared to Iraq's 115,000 million barrels of
crude... Saudi Arabia's 261,000 millions barrels of crude...

Which makes Canada the largest supplier of oil to the US. I think
Saudi Arabia is second with Mexico a close third.

Yeah, you gotta love it!

55-60% of US consumption is imported at a cost of $50 billion+ per
year, amounting to the largest single element of your trade deficit.
That is not a good condition for any country and is likely not
sustainable for the next generation. If there is a shadow, it is
diminishing.

The Canadian dollar has been gaining by leaps and bounds against your
weakened dollar. Some speculators are predicting the Canuck buck to
be on par with your dollar before too long.

I wonder what a new Harley will cost then?

Quoted from March 2003 GeoTimes

Estimates of Canada’s oil reserves jumped from 4.9 billion barrels to
180 billion this year, making the country the second-largest oil
reserve in the world, according to an annual survey conducted by the
Oil and Gas Journal. The change catapults Canada ahead of Iraq in
terms of reserve size, and decreases OPEC’s share of the world’s oil
reserves by more than 10 percent.
End Quote

Estimates vary depending on how you assess the volume in the Alberta
oil sands. Rest assured as long as oil and natural gas are used as
the primary source of energy, Canada in general and Alberta
specifically will welcome Americas lust for the internal combustion
engine and your willingness to incur large trade deficits to fuel that
lust.

Scuse me I have to go polish my shoes for the morning. Seems I picked
up some of that black gold while walking in from the yard. ;-)

shadow? Canada is already a subsidiary of America Inc....they just don't
like to admit it. And by subsidiary, I was thinking something along the
lines of ummm....lets see.....the tire of a cage. Needed, for sure, but
replaceable, and cheaply, with another, in a heartbeat.

to heck with their crude, what are you going to heat your house with when
they run out of natural gas?

 

yee-haw! Bring on the soccer moms!

Cool! Then when the snowbirds from Calgary flock south, they can drop lots
of their improved dollars, inflating our economy instead of theres. I like
this stuff....

The tar sands are a wild and crazy animal. I wouldn't get all carried away
quite yet. Know what you need bazillions of to create oil from tar sands?
Natural gas. And you don't have as much as you used to think you did. And
without it, tar sands are just really cool rock formations....tough to fit
in an SUV's gas tank....

 

Good to know!
Thanx

 

Actually Saudi Arabia is first at 17% you're tied with Mexico for second at
16%... then comes Venezuela at 13% followed by Nigeria 6% and finally Iraq
at 5% but Iraq's output will change soon as we open the tap more thanks to
Bush's plan...

Yeah??? it will just drive up the cost of all the American goods that Canada
can't live without...

Our labor unions will love it because being on par the US buck ought to
drive the US auto makers back home having to cut labor cost by shutting down
all the Canadian factories...

By then they be will shrinked wrapped in pairs and sold in Cost Co...

Save it... it will be worth a lot more after your oil fields hit empty...

I don't know about bazillions, but I can tell you big oil is currently
spending billions (that's billions with a B)on the tar sands and plans
on spending billions more. Much as you may not like it, it is
happening, the oil is there, the technology is available to extract it
and since it now makes financial sense that is exactly what they are
doing.

Go guy some gas today secure in the knowledge some of it likely came
from those really cool rock formations.

I looked up three sites and all had Canada ahead of Saudi Arabia.
Most recently on the news yesterday it was mentioned at one of the
public statements surrounding Bush's visit to Canada.

No way your protectionist trade practices have almost stifled true
free trade between our countries. All it has done is drive up the
cost of lumber, beef and a ton of other consumer products on your side
of the border. Must be comforting to know you pay more for new stick
built houses down there because of your trade policies.

As for us, there is a whole world out there thrilled to buy the
quality of products Canada can supply.

Alberta has no debt, I repeat no debt. We ran a 4 billion dollar
surplus this year, four billion! Not bad for a population of +/- 3
million. I doubt a big four car part has ever been made in Alberta.

I think I will keep the oil, you can have the nuts and bolts.

Alternate forms of energy will be found and used long before we run
out of oil.

Damn that last little black spot is still there.

Well, lets gather a little prespective here, and not get too fast and loose
with "reserves" definitions. They have been pouring money into those sands
for decades, so its hardly a "$50/bbl" arguement, there best daily
production rate in those decades has been perhaps 600,000 BBL/Day ( call it
10 average Saudia wells ) so the volumes involved don't look to replace our
imported oil anytime soon, and without the natural gas available to cook the
stuff, it comes back to rocks with nearly immovable oil in
it....again...something which can't by itself go into an SUV's tank.

Whereas condensate from shallow gas wells in Ohio? If you didn't mind
occasional burnt valves, you could nearly pour it directly into your
tank....

it does...it does....

just not as much as a few wells in the Middle East....

 

yeah, but so do we.

 

No, actually the biggest recipients of handouts, in the form of farm
subsidies and pork barrel projects are the Republican rural states.

Bush was worried about being pelted with snow balls leaving the building...
a 1% margin is thin enough to weathervane with the political breezes...

Protectionism... nasty little thing that we should left behind in Europe
hundred of years ago... but no we had to bring over the pond now didn't
we???

Don where's your cage made???

I'm thrilled to have bought a 1952 DeHavilland Chipmunk... a true military
trainer that's pure sex with wings... I'm happy to say that it was designed
built in Canada first then exported to England... yes it was that good the
Brits didn't mess it up with a redesign... also Mr.RC45s "Oh Shit" meter a
Beltronics radar detector... other than Cline Dion what else is there
Canadian that I can't live without???
