Arcalyn brings up a valid point, even though I think he wants me off his planet, and others have enforced his point. If we invest more time in research, we may have no need nor concern with Iraq. Many companies are testing alternative fuels like Hydrogen, which if used correctly is as safe as water, in fact, the theory behind it would produce said byproduct. We wouldnt need to depend on fossil fuels.
I dont think we are close enough to space travel yet, but it doesnt hurt to invest into the researching of it. Most of the technology research should be toward making life more reasonable, IMHO. If you didnt have to worry about the bills or how you were going to eat, you could focus more time on self improvement and technological endeavours. Sure, if some of us didnt have bills, and a constant supply of food, we'd sit infront of the TV or computer all day, but after a while, that would get tiring. I don't know how the world would handle this event if it were to happen, but nobody really knows what tomorrow will bring.
Sorry, but after posting I read through again. WC, with the Earth being composed of 75% surface water, I don't think we would run out that quick. It could get polluted or tainted in some way, but that would be the only reason I see for someone selling water as a resource. If one day we did space travel, I would think that we could "fuse" ourselves together some water without a problem.
