This Is A War For Oil

Lindsey Williams is a Baptist minister who went to Alaska in 1971 as a missionary. In 1974, construction began on the TransAlaska pipleline and he volunteered to be the Chaplain on the pipeline for the Alyeska Pipeline Company. He became an advisor to improve the relationship between management and labor. He dormed with, ate with, sat next to, according to Williams, "some of the most powerful, controlling, manipulative men on the face of the Earth."
The info he learned is revealed in his book, The Energy Non-Crisis. There is a series of videos by the same title on YouTube that I recommend you watch. It's and eye opener.
Mr. Williams firmly believes that whoever controls energy, controls the economy.

I think wind power is cropping up more and more. But I don't think the oil companies are ready to give up power just yet. And that's what it boils down to. A power shift.
