America's Energy Independence

0 comments

What are your thought on the growing dominance of the U.S. in the oil industry? U.S. drillers haven't pumped 10 million barrels a day since Nixon's presidency. I guess it means we're taking big steps towards energy independence. Growing production should probably drive prices lower, but it seems the U.S. has so much supply that that won't be a problem. I read we had over 12 billion barrels that we could tap into in Alaska alone.

Instead, the companies need to engineer robots to replace the droves of Japanese workers approaching retirement age. Right now, over a quarter of the Japanese population is over the age of 65, and that number is expected to jump to 40 percent over the next 40 years. That’s bad news for industries that will need to replace those retiring workers, especially for industries like construction for which automation hasn’t caught on as quickly.
