I’ve been postulating this on a few threads to get some feedback -

are the “elites” keeping us from using our resources because they intend to turn them over to our creditors in the future?

The best answer I’ve gotten so far has been that they have, perhaps, used our resources as “collateral” for the loans, and using them up would be a breach and cause all future loans to cease.

I don't know the answer to your question -- but I have a similar one.

Is the theory of Peak Oil just a way to keep the price of oil artificially high, AND what will happen if we learn that oil is forming all the time and has nothing to do with anything transpiring millions of years ago?

Or, say, what will happen to the global economy once there is an unlimited source of FREE energy??

But if there is no way to pull that resource out of the earth, how can we offer it up for exchange? Not every oil well drilled offers up what some people think it will... it just doesn’t seem like very valid collateral to me.

You are probably right, the “powers that be” are pretty certain we wouldn’t figure this out: the electorate DID put the Kenyan terrorist in the WH! (By the way, I love your tagline. It would make a great bumper sticker!)

About “collateral”...consider everyone to be covered by the healthcare (PC health-management bill) legislation to be part of the “collateral”...everything and everybody in the US is included, especially private property being gobbled up for redistribution. The Ob administration has just ‘overtured’ China to “invest” in our smaller banks..perhaps at 51%? Good point made about collateral.
