The government under the new presidents starts talking about using oil as a primary fuel source and opens dialogs for establishing off shore drilling. Then suddenly a rig off the coast of Louisiana explodes and strangely enough the emergency environmental protection mechanisms all fail. An investigation into the so-called accident shows it was not an accident but a planned action to create a fear of oil as fuel. The environmental panic causes fuel shortages and an increase in cost of most everything in the stores. People start to go hungry and businesses shut down. People pray it will only be as bad as the great depression.
