If oil companies were to invest their high profits into alternative fuel research it will help America move toward new forms of energy.

We must shift the energy policy debate in America with an increased focus on alternative and renewable fuels and Congress must pass meaningful alternative fuels and incentive programs to help move the U.S. away from dependence on foreign oil.

We can't allow multinational oil companies boasting of record profits to gouge consumers... We must do what we can to fix this problem.

a gift to the oil companies.

The oil companies regard nuclear power as their rival, who will reduce their profits, so they put out a lot of disinformation about nuclear power.

Interestingly, the oil companies know very well that in less than 30 years they will not only be charging very high prices, but that they will be uncompetitive with renewables.
