Oil IS an energy of the past. We don't need HALF the oil we are currently consuming, mostly in massively overpowered wheeled behemouths. If we all cut our reliance on it, there will be less traffic, cleaner air, cheaper transportation, more public transportation, fewer traffic fatalities and less reliance on crumbling transportation infrastructure. Cars as we know it are 20th century technology. If you look at Japan, they have a lot of electrics now. India have cars running on compressed air.

On the whole, Europeans spend LESS on fuel. Why? Because of high fuel efficiency, and because of efficient public transport.

Speculation drives up fuel prices globally, as it is a global market.

Well regulated capitalism with a social safety net does. Like in Australia. Not overregulation, not underregulation. Good regulations.

There IS NO WAR ON OIL. The oil producers are pumping MORE THAN EVER. The subsidies continue, and the MMS are STILL NOT COLLECTING the ROYALTIES. Meanwhile, it is the REPUBLICANS who are wanting a war with Iran, which is BOUND to push global oil prices THROUGH THE FUCKING ROOF.
