Mexican Peak Oil: Closer than You Think

Tue, 07/31/2007 - 8:49am — chicago dyke

Seven years more and it's all gone. IIRC, Mexico really relies on the money it makes from oil exportation, and their already fragile hold on a stable society will be greatly upset when this money goes away. Obviously, as their close neighbors, we can expect to feel the effects as well.
I'm very ignorant of Mexican politics, but this seems to me to be a rather big deal. I wonder if their leaders will prepare for it better than ours have.

Of course the Mexican leaders will have prepared better!

Far easier to build mountain bunkers in Mexico, because the labor is cheaper.

Same deal with mercenaries.

You're just not thinking, CD. Something must be distracting you...
