The apparent greed of oil companies is the best argument for electric cars.

Look at gasoline prices right now. Is there an actual shortage? No. There never was. No oil company has lost a dime in profits. They’ll let the country go to Hell first.

Seriously? How do you think oil prices are determined?

https://www.eia.gov/finance/markets/crudeoil/https://www.eia.gov/finance/markets/crudeoil/

Key factors influencing crude oil prices:

Spot prices
Supply from non-OPEC countries
Supply from OPEC countries
The supply demand balance: inventories
Financial markets
Demand in non-OECD countries
Demand in OECD countries
