Pedex's comments over on an oil drum post really hit the mark for me, talking about the money interests:

It isnt "our" financial future, its "their" financial future they are managing, and its an important point. We have a fiat currency, a banking cartel, and capitalism.........this is not and never has been a "free market". Basic monopoly game rules are in effect, the guy with biggest empire at the end wins period and the rules of the game are both manipulated and rigged in their favor. If they have to drain every resource on the planet mineral or human in the process then so be it. IMHO, chance are good that peak oil will do nothing more than cause a crash of the current system followed by a shake up in the the elite uber rich running the show then it will be back to business as usual with those same people in charge yet again. Same story has been played out countless times thru history, the scale just keeps getting bigger.

Inflation is an insidious way for the banking cartel to do exactly what they are in business to do, take your energy and money away from you and make money doing essentially nothing.
