How much longer do yall think we have with the oil? i live in alaska and our pipeline is producing a lot less than previous years. supposedly Saudi arabia has 25% of the worlds oil there, i hear they are also running low. We run out of oil, and we become chinese. How long ya think the oil fields got left in them?

It'll be a while before we run out of oil. America has one of the world's largest reserves that hasn't even been touched yet because of where it's located and we want to preserve that land.
But by the time we do run out of oil, I'm pretty sure we would've figured out an alternative by then. -
I have no idea, but I do know that neither drilling nor conserving are long term solutions

We run out of oil and we become chinese? huh?

No, I think people just like to exaggerate to make their points.

This whole running out of oil ? is a gimmick set in place by all the oil corporations to make billions of dollars off us feeble minded people!

Read up on Peak Oil theory sometime. We don't have to run out, we only have to reach the halfway point to ? the whole world.

Oil will not run out soon but rather just get more expensive. The US has more "oil" that Saudia Arabia in the form of oil shale, however this is currently more expensive to produce. (North of $100/ barrel) It also has pollution issues with the process to create it.
