I don't "demand" anything. I just sit back (with an outsider's point-of-view)

If it weren't for having the cheapest energy until quite recently, the US would
be just some two-bit stubborn nationalist player. Let's see how the next couple
decades (of soon-to-be "unobtanium"-priced oil) and future historians treat you.

The [agricultural] revolution has deprived the mass of consumers of any
independent access to the staples of life: clothing, shelter, food, even water.
