January 19, 2013 - 5:09pm
On the heels of Chris' recent report clarifying the global net energy predicament, he and PeakProsperity.com contributing editor Gregor Macdonald sit down to talk in depth about the broken relationship between energy costs and economic growth.

Of course, if you follow the news today, this is not the story you are hearing.
