At what price of oil/gasoline do the wheels come off of our completely cheap energy dependant civilization?

When no one can afford gas what will become of the West?


We will be helpless and hopeless. Have the jihadis found our Achilles heel and struck us a soon to prove mortal blow?At what price of oil/gasoline do the wheels come off of our completely cheap energy dependant civilization?
At $200/bbl or $10/gal for gasoline will probably do it.





However, I think that the time has come NOW to talk to OPEC and tell them that they need to lower the oil price back to around $50 a barrel, or less. They have all the money that they need, and far more than they can spend. If they do not, then every thing that they buy will be pegged to the price of oil. Eat sand, or else.

That's hard to say but today the price of gas is $3.98 per gallon in Indiana. I didn't notice how much diesel was but its got to be driving some trucking companies out of business. You will also see a lot of small construction businesses go under this year. From there, it just snowballs.
We ride bikes.


We ride horses.


We walk.


Or we find an alternative power source.


America will not be helpless.
