Why are so many people so eager to swallow such a cockamamie idea, that
there was no wealth before oil and there can be no wealth without it?

If this is a sincere position, well then such a person is faced with only
two choices:
1. live in as much luxury as possible, polluting and destroying the
environment, until the oil is gone, then live in poverty in a reeking, foul
mess for the rest of human history or:
2. live in poverty now, while there are still forests and animals and air to
breathe.

So do none of these people have children or care about future generations?
