In this urgent and sweeping discussion, R.J. Rushdoony and Otto Scott expose the economic and national security crisis unfolding beneath America’s feet: the collapse of domestic oil production. With refineries closing, wells capped, and small producers squeezed out by foreign imports and global cartels, America’s energy independence is rapidly vanishing. But this is no mere economics lesson—Rushdoony and Scott trace the consequences of weak leadership, blind free trade ideology, and bureaucratic ignorance all the way to national vulnerability. From oil to geopolitics, the USSR to Wall Street, this episode is a sobering wake-up call for Christians to reclaim courage, clarity, and responsibility in a time of creeping collapse.
