There's 100% "association" for sure.
Your point being?

My point being that you can't think of one single thing that isn't "associated" with it. That was the subject right?

Yes, we are dependent on oil...probably lots of foreign oil. Lots of people are upset about that. Are these same people as passionate about being dependent on foreign food? How about foreign electronics? Clothing?

If oil runs out......or supply runs low enough that WW3 becomes necessary?

Either way....it's a GREAT excuse for new innovation / technology and alternative fuel sources......therefore, a GREAT REASON for unhindered research and development through.....a FREE MARKET and Capitalist ideology......things being squashed a bit more each day.

Suppressed enough to thwart INNOVATION and CREATION.
But, this "could" be what some folks desire, right?
