That will be enough to keep the Liberal party in people's minds for some time to come.</I><BR/><BR/>This really annoys me. Peak oil should really start to hurt soon, and it will be under a Labor government but not <I>because</I> of Labor. Labor will cop all the blame, because that old Liberal government fear campaign cliche will kick in. Warning Will Robinson.... Labor = high interest rates!<BR/><BR/>I guess I'm not into predicting percentages the way Biddulph is, but I came to a similar conclusion before reading his article. The challenges coming to society are so huge that the old economic labels and paradigms behind them will disappear. It may well be that the party we now call the "Liberal party" will survive, but it's agendas could be so changed that it is the same party in name only, a semantic game.<BR/><BR/>It's not just an oil crisis, but a lead crisis, a copper crisis, an aluminum crisis... so many things we take for granted will peak and decline. And after peak all the same rules apply... going from the high density good stuff to the low quantity poor quality stuff. The good stuff always gets used first in mining. Of course the difference between metals and oil is that metals can be recycled... but the whole society is geared for growth. <BR/><BR/>Then there is the ecological crisis with Hormone Disruptor's loose in the environment with a whole host of other nasty chemicals and toxins finding their way up the global food chain. Then there's topsoil loss, freshwater loss, and on it goes. It's not just Global Warming... it's "peak everything" remember?<BR/><BR/>How economies adjust to the post-growth era when a stable population and consumption paradigm are required is anyone's guess... as are the policies our parties will be running on as this "convergence of crisis*" unfolds.
