Matt Simmons on CNBC's Fast Money

Scroll down to see why the Fast Money Crew looks so glum.









Good Morning All!

We just saw this priceless post over at sweet, gentle, treehugger.

Matt Simmons, head of the oil investment firm Simmons & Co Int. was a call in guest on Fast Money. When asked about the future of oil and what its current price meant for us here in the US and worldwide, his unbelievably candid answer left the Fast Money crew looking a little shocked.

Return to village life? Check.
Growing our own food? Check.
The importance of renewable energy and the end of cheap oil as we know it? Check and check.

Watch this:



It's amazing the way truth and honesty can have such a chilling effect on the cheerleaders of the status quo, especially when the status quo is built on illusion and inequality. These poor people look like they've been doused in fish tank water.

Love to All, (especially the hosts over at Fast Money!)

Holy Cow. "Unfortunately we're not having a wake up call... we're having a witch hunt."

Well said. I think these fellas need us to send them a care package. They look a little shook-up.
