There is a small part of me that hopes the price of oil stays. It seems like if it stays at 130ish the global economy won’t collapse, but it should be enough to spur development of other energy resources before we run out of oil and/or cook ourselves via global warming.

But the bigger part of me :cocktease: thinks “fuck it my grand kids can deal with it. Give me cheap gas and big cars.”
