This has been known for Decades (I've known of it for at least a decade).

Australia only has 28 days of fuel reserves where all 3rd wold nations are supposed to have 90 days.

So what does that mean, well if oil supply gets stopped for some reason after 28 days we are in a whole world of hurt, Australia suffers the tyranny of distance, we are a vast land, without vehicles running no food gets delivered, no coal gets dug up for the power stations so the lights go out.

There is only so much fish n chips oil to make bio deisel.

Now this has been an issue for which all previous governments have chosen to ignore, but the reality is real.

28 days

I have recently seen a show on TV titled "Doomsdsy Preppers". About people in America who are planning for different disasters the world could throw at them in the near future. The thread by Elmo called "this is criminal" jogged my memory.

When I first watched this show I thought. What a bunch of tossers as I watched a fat guy shooting holes in the side of his shed. Now I think maybe they are smarter than they look, with all the recent happenings in the world. Political pressures, natural disasters, increased poverty, etc.

seeing as Australia only has a 28 day reserve before we run out fuel in the case of an emergency. And essentially screw over a whole nation, I was wondering if you know anyone who does this.

If i where to do this, I would go claim an island in North Queensland. Living in paradise sipping margaritas, playing guitar, fishing, swimming, sailing all while the rest of the country's on its knees.

PS this show is available free on the internet for those who want to watch.
