Oil ends when it goes negative priced. We should remember when that happened and how surprising it was, it was actually a kind of miracle, but quickly downplayed by the media, because something else was happening, the devaluation of capital, whilst the value of money in terms of energy (What matters most to most people), was going up, not despite it being issued as massive stimulus at the time, but actually because it was.
We should have realised something very special was happening right then, and never forgot it, right there is the key to ending the run of oil, and actually anything else we don't like, any other stuff we wish we had the power to change, like we should have in a true democracy, we had it just then, when everyone had financial freedom to throw money at the causes they wanted to support, rescuing bankrupt companies whose products they wanted to keep in existence, nobody was worried about themselves going bankrupt, the stimulus seemed as if it would be forever, but it wasn't to be so, because the capitalists in control wanted to maintain the power in capital, they nearly lost control by the devaluation of capital, they soon re-imposed scarcity, despite what it would do, and is doing now to the valuation of money, because the money is again losing touch with the energy of value, the only energy scaling up while all others scale down, solar, especially domestic and community solar, the economic product from this has built up since 2005 to now being worth hundreds of billons in every developed country, it can't be monetised by money as debt, because the energy from the sun does not require or respond to energy in vs energy out, the way the planet does, the sun gives what it gives for free, there is no way to exchange anything with it for what it gives, it just gives it regardless, which means the only way to monetise it, thus correctly valuing it, is to issue money for free, which means we should be issuing solar stimulus.
If we'd started indexing the stimulus issued during covid, to solar, instead of stopping the stimulus, the world would already be a very different place right now.
No war, temperature in the way back down, we would be more or less fully solar, having been incentivised and empowered to do it, the disinformation campaign against hydrogen would be defused, we would be using it already to build up stocks of the energy which is now going to heat, to replace the entire stock of fossil fuels, keeping all planes in the air, all cars on the road, all ships in a sea with fully recovered fish and coral stocks, air and water cleaned by widespread hydrogen energy genuinely recycled with no generation of pollution, all whilst bringing back down temperature, because we would finally be working in creative mode with energy, as opposed to destructive mode, which we can't even distinguish between, as long as science still does not, by omitting to mathematically sign energy, positive from sun to Earth, negative when taken out of Earth.
Sorry if that sounds like a one track, autistic message, as I've recently been accused of, I don't care, I will keep saying it all until my last, apparently autistic breath.
