Meaning of security

Monday, July 21st, 2008

After attending a week course on security, I’ve noticed people can be clueless about the meaning of security putting  them under defense against terrorism and house break  ins.Of course this form of security is important in the society but we need to broaden our meaning in security.

The fossil fuel decline is the greatest security threat of modern man yet few have really address this looming crisis despite the rising oil prices.Without fossil fuel , no security measures can be effective as our modern society crumbles along with in.The talk of finanical security runs hollow too as fiat currencies that the fossil economy holds up run over our monetary system that’s supporting it over the last century.

The meaning of security changes with time, 3 meal a day and a roof over our head was considered real security during the days of our serf peasant forefathers time.But now with the modern era, insurance coverage,retirement funds and other plentitude of goods and services becomes security of our daily life too.

Indeed man has come far and perhaps need to ask ourself what security in life really means instead of going along with the whims and fancies of changing world that’s going to give us a rude awakening in the post oil world.

Coursework!

Democracy means government by the uneducated, while aristocracy means government by the badly educated.

Dakota royalties

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008

Yes.The royalties from the land of north Dakota are making millionaires out of their residents that are sitting on oil.We’re talking about 1 out of 3 residents!What are royalties some of you may ask.It’s the price of letting some companies the right to develop the resource which in this case is oil.

And with the high oil prices this days, Americans will no doubt find relief once again the crude energy that they may have to drill in alaska are be in abundence in their backyard.And the oil is easier to refine compared to Alberta tar sands.This all come at a time when US exploration for oil seems to be going no where.

Big oil and gas companies already rushing into the region of north dakota for drilling and the results seems to be positive in the long run.The Bakken basin has been confirmed by the US government having a big oil formation.This would release American being beholden by Saudi Oil and also create fortunes for the local landowners there as well.

I guess the environmentalists will have a say on this matter.Meanwhile the royalties in Dakota will be around for some time.
