In my last article, I explained how our banking system is like a giant ponzi scheme. In this article, I will detail why this system is collapsing now. Energy: The Master Resource Of all the Earth’s resources, energy is the master resource. Without energy, there is no economy and thus its production is measured and studied unlike any other. Whether the price of oil will go up or go down in the short-term is a worthy question for traders to ponder. However, regardless of price, one fact is indisputable: for the economy to grow, there must be an increase in energy consumption. One cannot exist without the other. Look at the last 50 years and you will see a tight correlation between energy consumption and economic growth. When economies grow, they consume more energy and when economies contract during a recession, the consumption of energy also shrinks. Therefore, without an increasing energy supply, there cannot be an expanding economy. This is just common sense when you think about it.
