They won't allow us to drill our own huge reserves that are located in places where no one has ever been and no one will never go. This week they tried, and failed, to raise taxes on oil company profits, which would have increased the price of gas.
Even if we drill for more oil, they're not going to allow it to be refined: Greens Thwart Gasoline Production
We need to build more refineries, and drill our own oil. It may not help right now, but it will make the future better. If we had drilled years ago like they wanted to, we would not be paying the price we are now.
Thanks to congress and the envirowackos paying them off, I can barley afford to commute to work.
