For many it is at the heart of many of the problems in the middle east and it continues to be the Achilles heel of the Western world. Access to increasingly supplies of oil continue to dominate the thoughts of many leaders around the globe.

But the question is at what cost? Death tolls continue to rise daily in the Arabian world, while recently off the coast of the USA the environmental impact of the quest for oil was all to easy to see with huge volumes of the stuff being dispersed into the Gulf of Mexico.

While oil is needed for a variety of things, including significant industrial use, it is cars that remain the real driving force behind demand.

Greek Need EU Bailout

The global recession has continued to hit countries across the globe with Greece being the latest country to require a bailout. In a country with over 11 million people the problem the Greeks face raising revenue is that a very small proportion of the population pay higher rate tax due to an economy that is built predominantly on a cash economy.

This latest bailout is a real set back to the EU which is under real pressure with Ireland, Portugal and Spain also struggling under the weight of the financial crises.

The global impact of the recession can be seen in New Zealand also where Finance Minister Bill English declared at least we are not Greece. While this is undoubtedly true at least Greece has the financial power of the EU behind it. We are not sure who will bail New Zealand out should they ever have need of one.
