Certainly a share of the blame for the fuel shortage goes to those who discouraged the seeking of more oil and the drilling of more wells, all in the name of preventing climate change. Their goal is some other magical source of much more costly energy, not what any developing nation needs. My suggestion is that those who dislike our previous energy souces are welcome to do without, so that the rest of uscan stay warm.
Possiblythis energy shortge is temporary, but that is only until it can be made permanent.
While "the cloud" as an alternative is still growing, there are some negative considerations that are not so very obvious to most folks. Those are security, availability, and reliability, all of which matter.
Interesting, and BAD NEWS, Really! I say that becuse wealth DOES equate to power, at least in the world that I can see. The mechanism of that power is not always obvious, but it does apper to be effective.
What sort of effect this will have on the rest is not very clear, but it seems that it will certainly have some effect on the less powerful entities.
And the rise of the giants does not give us any clue as to what is happening elsewhere.
Interestig and educationl reading here! And looking at the economy, a good point that a small bit of growth is not a recession! GREED is such a nasty disease! Indeed, keep in mind the Tulip bubble, that could indeed happen with Bitcoin and all of that imaginary wealth.
And watch out for China! Those Generals in the background might not be quite as smart as they think they are, OR there may be a very well hidden agenda to take over the world, but not for the benefit of those common Chinese workers. Once again, keep in mind that CHINA IS DIFFERENT!!! In so many aspects.
Also, our very own Federal Reserve Bankers sort of admit, slightly, that inflation is a bit more than they had intended. Such spin doctoring. While our infltion is not as damaging as the virus pandemic, it is certainly much less selective on who is being damaged by it, with the greatest misery, naturally, being inflicted on those least able to deal with it.
Of course it is true that a whole lot of decisions are made with no consideration of secondary results. This often leads to rather unhappy consequences, mostly for those folks not making the decisions. That radical push to alternate energy sources, that always are more costly, has impacted the much less developed areas of the world far more than others. And now the push to end some of the newer energy mining methods, such as "fracking", and in general reduce the effort to increase fossile fuel production ablity, has resulted in a shortage. And of course the reduced supply results in higher prices, first for energy and then for almost everything else. And this seems to make a small group happy.
It seems that our leadership choices were between a maniac and a fool. A rather harsh way to put it, but that is my impression.
I see the bad news as that comment towards the end of tghe third paragrph of this article, "The Federal Reserve would NEVER allow stocks to sink.....". I agree that it is true, and demonstrates more clearly than anything else that the Federal reserve bank does not have the well being of the general population as an agenda item. Clearly the fed supports "the One Percent" segment of the wealth holders.
I certainly DO NOT suport any level of socialism or wealth redistribution, but it is not reasonable to intentionally make the lower 99% of the population miserable. The fact should be recalled that there is such a thing as a breaking point, and when that point is passed things get really ugly, often in a real hurry with no control and nobody steering. This is certainly not a good scene, not at all what I hope for.
UNfortunately I do not have a quick and easy answer, nor does the fed, it appears. So it may get "rather interesting."
