    Nobody cares about how much is left.  All people care about is how much it costs.  'Sustainability' it is a long word which is easy to spell right, but in America it is a foreign concept.

    Listening to this guy I realized that people reify the oil market.  Inside the box, we can't think outside of it.  The presenter makes 'the oil market' into a thing which we have a responsibility to take care of.  Like the oil market was a living thing.  Like it was a pet rock with feelings to worry about.  As if the life of a useless eater was a god-given right.  That god only cares about our current generation and not what comes later.
