\"We may congratulate ourselves that this cruel war is nearing its end.<\/p>\r\n
It has cost a vast amount of treasure and blood ...<\/p>\r\n
It has indeed been a trying hour for the Republic;<\/p>\r\n
but I see in the near future a crisis approaching<\/p>\r\n
that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country.<\/p>\r\n
As a result of the war,<\/p>\r\n
corporations have been enthroned<\/p>\r\n
and an era of corruption in high places will follow,<\/p>\r\n
and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign<\/p>\r\n
by working upon the prejudices of the people<\/p>\r\n
until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands<\/p>\r\n
and the Republic is destroyed.<\/p>\r\n
I feel at this moment more anxiety for the safety of my country<\/p>\r\n
than ever before, even in the midst of war.<\/p>\r\n
God grant that my suspicions may prove groundless.\"<\/p>\r\n

\"It did not take long for the principles of [Corporate] advertising and<\/p>\r\n
marketing<\/p>\r\n
developed to sell consumer goods<\/p>\r\n
to be applied to the 'sale' of political ideas and candidates.<\/p>\r\n
One of the first such applications came in the selling of World War I.<\/p>\r\n
In a book first published in 1920<\/p>\r\n
and entitled 'How We Advertised America', George Creel,<\/p>\r\n
a publisher and head of [President Woodrow Wilson's]<\/p>\r\n
Committee On Public Information,<\/p>\r\n
proudly divulged how he and his committee<\/p>\r\n
used the principles of advertising<\/p>\r\n
to convince Americans to go to war against Germany.<\/p>\r\n
Creel's success inspired others, [Republicans and]<\/p>\r\n
most notably Adolf Hitler,<\/p>\r\n
to use and develop these techniques on a grand scale.\"<\/p>\r\n
In 1934 the Republicans and their Corporations<\/p>\r\n
used the same propaganda techniques<\/p>\r\n
to destroy Upton Sinclair, the Democrat's very popular candidate<\/p>\r\n
for Governor of California.<\/p>\r\n
It cost the Republicans 10 Million dollars.<\/p>\r\n
The most ever spent on an election up to that date.<\/p>\r\n

Wealthy Individuals and their Multinational Corporations<\/p>\r\n

A little known secret: the world will<\/p>\r\n
run out of cheap oil in 2003.<\/p>\r\n
The Multinational Corporations and<\/p>\r\n
the Governments they control<\/p>\r\n
cooked the books to make it look like we have<\/p>\r\n
41 more years of cheap oil, 2041.<\/p>\r\n
But we really only have 3 more years, 2003,<\/p>\r\n
till the retail price of US gasoline will<\/p>\r\n
start to increase exponentially.<\/p>\r\n
One possible example (in 2 year increments):<\/p>\r\n
2 $\/gal, 3 $\/gal, 5 $\/gal, 8 $\/gal, 13 $\/gal, 21 $\/gal,<\/p>\r\n
34 $\/gal, 55 $\/gal, 89 $\/gal, 144 $\/gal, etc.<\/p>\r\n

By 2003, the end of cheap oil will be acknowledged,<\/p>\r\n
an energy crisis declared,<\/p>\r\n
and many new emergency federal policies<\/p>\r\n
will be quickly implemented.<\/p>\r\n
Wealthy individuals and<\/p>\r\n
their Multinational Oil Corporations<\/p>\r\n
have invested in the US Presidency<\/p>\r\n
so they will be in control of the writing<\/p>\r\n
of any new US energy policy<\/p>\r\n
during the next Presidential Administration.<\/p>\r\n
<\/p>\r\n
So what about the energy alternatives<\/p>\r\n
like solar cell generated electricity?<\/p>\r\n
The Multinational Oil Corporations own and control<\/p>\r\n
the research, development, production, and distribution<\/p>\r\n
of solar cell generated electricity.<\/p>\r\n
- Who Owns The Sun? by Daniel Berman and Ralph Nader (contributor)<\/p>\r\n
<\/p>\r\n
The Multinational Oil Corporations<\/p>\r\n
most likely will force the Public to<\/p>\r\n
use up the remaining, increasingly expensive,<\/p>\r\n
profitable and scarce oil,<\/p>\r\n
and delay as long as possible<\/p>\r\n
the availability of<\/p>\r\n
abundant cheap solar cell generated electricity.<\/p>\r\n
<\/p>\r\n
The global corporate economy<\/p>\r\n
depends on cheap oil to power their machines.<\/p>\r\n
After 2003 it will start to fracture,<\/p>\r\n
forming many smaller local economies.<\/p>\r\n
Multinational Corporations will attempt to obtain,<\/p>\r\n
by any means possible,<\/p>\r\n
a supply of abundant cheap energy for themselves.<\/p>\r\n
This Corporate control of Public Government<\/p>\r\n
has led to Militarism:<\/p>\r\n
the maintenance of a military<\/p>\r\n
so large and expensive that<\/p>\r\n
the military needs to<\/p>\r\n
continually conquer and cannibalize others<\/p>\r\n
to supply its ever increasing need for<\/p>\r\n
resources, to sustain itself.<\/p>\r\n

<\/p>\r\n
The military requires huge amounts of oil<\/p>\r\n
to power their war machines.<\/p>\r\n
Most of the recent wars are for the control of oil:<\/p>\r\n
(1) The Gulf War was about oil.<\/p>\r\n
(2) the so called drug war in Colombia<\/p>\r\n
is really a war for Colombia oil,<\/p>\r\n
(3) the war in the Balkans was about an oil pipeline,<\/p>\r\n
as described in the article<\/p>\r\n

<\/p>\r\n
After 2003, the number of such oil wars<\/p>\r\n
will increase exponentially.<\/p>\r\n
The end of cheap oil, will effect everything.<\/p>\r\n
