“..The New Golden Age of Oil That Wasn’t..”

“..Last winter, fossil-fuel enthusiasts began trumpeting the dawn of a new “golden age of oil” -

- that would kick-start the American economy – generate millions of new jobs – and free this country from its dependence on imported petroleum.

Ed Morse head commodities analyst at Citibank was typical.

In the Wall Street Journal he crowed – “The United States has become the fastest-growing oil and gas producer in the world -

- and is likely to remain so for the rest of this decade and into the 2020s.”
