<P>Most people believe that low oil prices are good for the United States, since
the discretionary income of consumers will rise. There is the added benefit that
Peak Oil must be far off in the distance, since “Peak Oilers” talked about high
oil prices. Thus, low oil prices are viewed as an all around benefit.</P>
<P>In fact, nothing could be further from the truth.<EM><STRONG> The Peak Oil
story we have been told is wrong</STRONG></EM>.<EM><STRONG> The collapse in
oil production comes from oil prices that are <SPAN
style="TEXT-DECORATION: underline">too low</SPAN>, not too
high.</STRONG></EM></P></DIV></BODY></HTML>
