We are sending 700 billion to $1 trillion overseas for the oil that we're buying. It creates an economic dislocation as we transfer all this wealth from America to those places.

Great. So, how exactly does taxing coal and natural gas reduce this amount?

It doesn't.

And how exactly does building solar farms reduce this amount?

It doesn't.

In fact, how does taxing oil reduce this amount if you tax domestic oil the same as foreign oil?

It doesn't. And if you tax foreign oil and you aren't allowed to increase your domestic drilling, how does that reduce your imporation of foreign fuel?

It depresses the economy, so you have less commerce, fewer people working, and less demand for fuel.

Great. That'll work.
