Some people talk about growing our fuel in this country but what is more important, fuel or food? I have been reading on how the Ogallala Aquifer is running dry. If it does run dry what effect will it have on this countries search for alternate fuel sources and how are we going to feed ourselves and all the new people coming into this country with our borders wide open?

Well you can always walk or bike or take public transportation, then again you could also find pulverized bone to be a suitable food source as well.

it's your choice, you can drive a car like the 1954 VW with 36 hp and eat or drive something with 400 hp and starve.

I'd say drive cars that are 10-20% more efficient and keep growing food.

Ammo is more important, with the right weapons and ammo, you can take all the food and fuel you want.
