The United States is in the biggest pickle of all, with 5 percent fo the worlds population but using up an astonishing 25 percent of the oil the entire world produces every year, the US economy feels even the smallest fluctuations in the price of oil more than other countries.
Dates for when oil production will peak range from anyday now to 2040. But most group in tight around 2010-2015.

As a refresher: In Ecology, you learn that it costs much more energy to create a tertiary consumer than it does to create a primary consumer, and that only 10% of the energy used on each trophic level actually gets passed to the next “higher” level on the food chain: the rest is lost in waste and reduced output of information and energy. In other words, it costs much more energy to create a Fox or a Hawk than it does to create a vegetarian Great Ape. Why? Because of the amount of food that it took (entirely dependent on plants as a keystone species), the energy, time and circumstance that it took each animal in that food chain in order to “be”, while the Ape skips that whole process and eats directly from the fruits/vegetables of the earth. Thus, much less vegetables are consumed in the long run because it takes 85% of our food in America to feed livestock for slaughter that could instead be going around the world to feed hungry people 3 times over, while currently half the world is starving.

Ted, that was funny. The poll showed Californians optimistic about the economy on the same day the federal government released data showing the economy actually shrunk in Q4 2012!

If you take OUT the ZIRP pumping I would bet we have had negative growth the last 3 years…….

John, the poll you mentioned should be discredited. Look at the last 5 points in the Register article. Almost laughable. Notice that they didn’t provide a break out of conservative vs liberal interviews nor political leanings. Lastly, take a look at who heads the Policy institute: A life long lib with a Phd. in Soc from UC Berkeley in 73. You know his political leanings. Oh one last thing they all work in San Fran.
