Solving oil problem?

Question

If someone invented an inexpensive alternative to oil, how long dya think they'd last.?

Answer 1

The problem is not finding a solution. We already have many options. The problem: changing energy sources is not a priority for the government. We would have to change many aspects of our life to change to solar power. They don't want to invest the time and money because the government is run by oil-men. If you don't believe me, do a little research into d**k Cheney's background. Just see what his last job was.

Answer 2

Probably not much time at all.

The big problem at the moment is not a lack of oil but the way the market is organised. We are getting shafted due to extra demand but there are huge oil reserves out there. Once again, shafted by the market. I suppose that's what you get for destabilising the Middle East.
