I believe the problem is, if the oil companies are making that much, and the government taxes all of that. What will the country do when we find alternate resources. It's been made quite clear however, that the government has no intension of moving from oil, they get too much money from it.

I understand, thank you Raven for clearifying this to me - I still find it hard to understand some english gramer at times.

But with what you just said; why would we move away from oil when there is obviously plenty of it? The entire reason why I came into this conversation was to inform people that there is infact, much oil left in the ground. We just wont get it.

Also, what is a government without money? How will we build roads, buildings, pass laws, investigate studies, progress in technilogical advancements, and many other things? Sure the governemnt gets alot of money, but the government also spends alot of money too.

I would also like to note that there is the possibility that we wont be finding a new and improved energy source anytime soon. Oil is a great resource, its just that simple. And if we do, who knows - maybe it will be something the government will be able to tax us on lol?

Unfortunately, Its time for me to catch some sleep. I need to get up early (again) in the morning. I hope I debated my case well, and I hope I did not leave anything out, or offendy/anger anyone that may have been reading what I have said.

Okay, one last post then...

I edit everything because this is my second language. You dont understand the difficulty of going from a 30+ alphabet to a 20+ alphabet. I tend to make many mistakes in spelling and when it comes to making complete/incomlete sense. How would you react if I asked you (in english) "why is your head so big?", but meant to ask how you were feeling and not even know I was at fault?

Good day to you, sir -.-"

There plenty of oil but its being used up more now. In that past decade oil sales in China and India sky rocketed because more and more people started to drive. That mean more oil is being sucked away from our planet. Eventually it WILL disappear.

If I remember correctly you said that the gas companies weren't making much because everyone had their hands in the money. And the you edited out to what is there now. I'm afraid that you have gone very far down the totem pole in my point of view for going back and editing. This is a debate. Make your point and prove it without having to backtrack and correct yourself.

Lets not forget the taxes!

After boiling all that down, how much do they really make? Please not that the money estimates I made were just examples.

You see that last sentece??? Originally it said "how can the gas companies cant be making a lot of money when everyone has their hands in it..."

I remember this cause I posted this

You changed it to what it looks like now.

Tell me if you didn't have a good understanding of what your reading or writing how did it change so well??? PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW THIS WORKS.

has anybody here heard of nuclear fusion? if all goes to plan, we should have a functioning miniature star here on earth within say 20 years. that's about 10 years before our oil reserves are expected to run out. however we still need to try our best and focus the majority of our money on solar energy, it's gonna be solar energy that gets us off this miserable planet in the next 300 years.

That is a pretty crappy thing to do, go back and change what you said in a debate...

As I said before, the Russian and English languages are both very difficult forms of speach to learn. I have always, and WILL always make mistakes in my gramer, spelling, and the point I am trying to make accross. Please keep this in mind.
