Ok -- so your peak oil stuff doesn't make any sense.
The USA gets the majority of it's oil from Canada... with just under 2000 barrels a day. http://abcnews.go.com/International/popup?id=1566549
And we get all of our oil from 14 sources or so...
We're talking about importing 10000 barrels a day... which according to the peak oil graph is less than a 3rd of the worlds petro.
If you look at the source data and date on the graph it's 2003... if you look at where the decline in petro production occurs... it's AFTER any STATISTICAL DATA... note the black line... so again... this is just speculation.
And your data is from Wikipedia... which has been wrong more than once.
It is however nice to see that (even though it's in parenthesis) you note that part of the reason for the insane oil is the declining value of the dollar. As long as our dollar continues to decline or stays low... and even the CANADIAN dollar is worth more... petro and gas will be expensive... any fuel or product we import from outside the country will be expensive.
