They’re artificially expensive. The US is a net EXPORTER of oil.
Is all just a bunch of fucking bullshit, everyone.

No, it's not. We all know that we cannot afford to put any more CO2 into the atmosphere. So reasonably, any new CO2 that *is* emitted would have to be (permanently) removed via carbon capture. That would be the true cost of emitting CO2, but instead, these effects are externalized to global society as a whole, making gas at the pump artificially cheap by cheating everyone else.
