First, we are not in a crisis, there is plenty of energy.
Second, deregulate fuel. If you allow anything to be used as fuel an alternative will be found when it is needed.
If pollution is your concern deal with that at its source, tail pipe, smokestack, etc and don’t regualate what happens before there.

It IS a crisis. It’s not that there isn’t enough, there isn’t enough American oil on OUR market. We have plants closing, truckers going under, Airlines bankrupt, food prices escalating rapidly, even our utilities have gone up 30% in the last two years.
IMO, we just don’t have, as a Nation, the capacity to absorb this level of price hikes in this amount of time.
Perhaps you do, and I think that’s awesome, but you are not representative of the typical American household, if you do.
