Venezuela is importing oil
and there’s a sand shortage.
We’re not doing it right.

umm.... 75% of the globe is covered with water... and underneath that water is... anyone? anyone? That's right, SAND!!

Now what happens when demand increases and supply decreased? Very good, price goes UP... making it profitable and worthwhile to grab sand from under the water, at ever-increasing depths.

Why must Liberals make everything far, far more difficult than it should be?

So, have we reached Peak Sand? We will now go into sand scarcity just as Global Warming, or, perhaps, a new Ice Age, or maybe Climate Change...depending on the hysteria of the moment, where our lack of sand will...uhm...make it easier to have sex on the beach?

I am surrounded by a sea of sand in Florida. My contents of my carpet alone would build enough iPhone IC’s to supply the globe. I will happily supply anybody! Bring money.

Sand is clearly a social justice issue.

The White man’s hand controls the land with the sand!

There is indeed quite a bit of it – about 7.5 quintillion grains on Earth’s beaches and deserts, according to one estimate.

I demand a recount!
