About this listen

A shocking investigation revealing why greedy oil companies are lying to the American people.

At the end of World War II, U.S. intelligence agents confiscated thousands of Nazi documents on what was known as the “Fischer-Tropsch Process” - a series of equations developed by German chemists unlocking the secrets of how oil is formed. When the Nazis took power, Germany had resolved to develop enough synthetic oil to wage war successfully, even without abundant national oil reserves.

For decades, these confiscated German documents remained largely ignored in a United States where petro-geologists and petro-chemists were convinced that oil was a “fossil fuel” created by ancient decaying biological debris. Clearly, big U.S. oil companies had no financial interest in explaining to the American people that oil was a natural product made on a continual basis deep within the earth. If there were only so many fossils in geological time, there could only be so much oil. Big oil could then charge more for a finite, rapidly disappearing resource than for a natural, renewable, and probably inexhaustible one.

The Great Oil Conspiracy explains how Stalin, at the end of World War II, demanded his petro-geologists “dig deeper” when petro-scientists in the United States had determined that the Soviet Union, like Germany, lacked national oil reserves. Russia today has challenged Saudi Arabia for the lead in oil production and exportation. Once oil is understood as an abundantly available resource, there is no reason hydro-carbon fuels cannot indefinitely propel the development and production of cheap energy reserves the United States needs to maintain its dominant position in the emerging global economy.

Editor reviews

The Great Oil Conspiracy: How the U.S. Goverment Hid the Nazi Discovery of Abiotic Oil from the American People is an in-depth investigation into society's misconceptions about the nature of petroleum reserves and production. Jerome R. Corsi begins with a discussion of the history of oil refinement and even delves into a number of once-secret Nazi documents. Fleet Cooper performs this informative text excellently, drawing out the intrigue and conspiracy at the heart of this infamous cover-up.

Interesting concept with what would seem to be imperial evidence.

Seems to align with the totalitarian push from elites of today, they are overplaying their hand and exposing themselves as tyrants.

Interesting

This is more of political stance on the current state of the energy industry than a historical nazi conspiracy as the bio implies. I stuck it out as it was only 3ish hours, though some statistics were interesting the last third of the book is just Obama bashing.

Not quite what it seems

Brilliant listen funny how everything links together the same names throughout history always pop up. And people. Call them conspiracy theory's. It's just investigative journalism most the time.

When any product is scarce, it will be worth more, so the fact that oil now seems to be plentiful, it's not gonna be as profitable. Hence the reason we are being forced into the "Green New Deal"

Great read
