The USA simply, unambiguously did NOT exist until 1787. Slavery in "the United States" therefore endured from 1787-1865, i.e., 78 years. In your opinion, how many years has it been since 1865? 60, 70? Of course, we could stretch a point and say that the USA existed before it existed, i.e., as of July 4, 1776. Now we can say slavery existed for 78 years in the USA and 89 years in the "USA extended." You certainly can't blame the USA for slavery existing in N. America BEFORE the USA did.

What will happen is ...( 1 month ago by Plutonwolf)
What will happen is the U S will heavily utilize it's massive coal deposits. Say hello to massive amounts of mercury in the food chain. Say hello to massive amounts of acid rain. Say hello to the final test of whether global warming is man made or not. Say hello the massive damage to the landscape as this coal is removed. Isn't it time to maybe invest $700,000,000,000.00 into research and developement of alternative energy sources and energy efficiency? Just a thought.

m9078jk3: utter nonsense. Take a look at a typical European city. High density living does not mean mass slavery. I think you'll find the French & Germans are pretty free people too. You'll also find that many European cities are far more attractive & vibrant places to live in than many of their North American counterparts. Besides, telecommuting isn't really appropriate for most people, is it? Telecommuting fire fighters, police, nurses, teachers, builders... I'm sure that'll work wonderfully.

My buddy is a roughneck. they drill for oil and above the oil is the natural gas. Because there is no market for natural gas yet, at least not enough for profit to inspire a transition, they just burn it. Light the gas on fire and waste all the resources just to drill for the money.

But historically technology has always out paced the use of natural resources. What about hydrogen engines? What about hybrid cars that get 100 mpg? In time those will replace regular cars. Also mans knowledge and innovation is exponentially increasing. Also even if everything they say is true then it will take several decades. We'll all be old and grey or dead by then. Leave that to out kids to figure it out.

By researching other possibilities and thinking through them. I'm not sure what you are asking. My response was to the guy assuming I had done no research because I disagreed with the film (many aspects of it). And no I'm not going to post a rebuttal to the film in a 500 character limited text field. There is lots of stuff out there if you want to take a look, and if you don't, don't. It doesn't matter to me.

As there life is just perfect, an hours drive to work, and hours drive home, 30 minutes to the kids soccer match, 30 mins to Wal-Mart and Target, all in the comfort of an SUV. WHAT A FANTASTIC LIFE!!!......NOT!!!

As human beings are we really considering changing our way of life or do we just watch a doc such as this and ponder for 1/2 hr about our impeding self destruction make grandiose statements and eventually go back on the road to humanities eradication.THINK ABOUT IT !!
