Debateful

I saw this debate on one site and I wanted to know what your opinion of it was. As time goes on and they build cars that don't require oil (electric or solar or hydrogen or whatever), the need for oil will disappear tremendously. Do you think that, with all the water consumption that occurs, that water may one day be more precious than oil?

Are you kidding? Water is already more precious than oil. You can't drink a big cup full of the crude black stuff.

Right, but water is also a lot cheaper than oil is. That's what the question really is, Archer. Oil is worth more because it is used for cars and heating houses and airplanes and all of that.

Oil is worth more money, but water is more precious.
