Energy is NOT wealth! At present, it is liability, not profit!

As long as the Pashas of Petroleum and the road-construction contractors are fat and satisfied (curse their worthless hides!), then the Quality of Life is lowered, not increased.

Energy could be wealth, if it were used to build and maintain high-speed rail transportation and freight, and a well thought-out mix of public and private transport, and sensible urban planning.
