Once it takes more oil energy to pump oil to the surface than
you get out of it , you have run out of oil

Back in the era of "starving millions" in the 1950s/60s India was
considered such a basket-case that even FAO had given up on it.
(Pakistan was in similar trouble, but it was seen as salvagable.)
India (and other countries in dire straits) were saved by the green
revolution of short straw/high harvest index grains.
>but perhaps it is a stretch to call it a true democracy...
They have an elected government. They have lively Opposition parties.
At least one Indian State (Kerala) has actually *elected* a Communist
government. (I think there may have been another more recently too,
up in the NE corner. But I wasn't paying enough attention at the time
so I'm not sure about that.)
How much more do they need to do to be a democracy? They're already
in front of the United States.

Not necessarily, depends on what energy you use to do the pumping.

You could use nuclear energy to pump the oil but uranium
reserves would vanish within a decade

Wrong. And there are breeder reactors even if that was true.

And spent fuel reprocessing, MOX reactors, heavy water reactors that
can use depleted uranium, etc.-Jitney
