1. All evidence of the disintegration of the U.S. economic and....
...social structure as we have all come to know it, but are you suggesting that these are indicators that "peak oil" has been reached and even passed?

3. It passed in 2001. The CIA said so:
http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/xx.html


Oil - production: 75.34 million bbl/day (2001 est.) Oil - consumption: 75.81 million bbl/day (2001 est.)

That was in 2001. It's now 2005. Lord only knows how big the rift between "production" and consumption is at this point.
