Amazing, isn't it?

You can functionally live without ever having to buy oil or gas. It will not be a conveinent life, but neither is one devoid of canned vegetables or butchered meat.

Saturation limits in the U.S. as well as Arabian oil fields meaning oil is getting harder and harder to glean, yet it's the liberals fault for not allowing yet another extremely small field to get over-pumped as well. Double Wow.
Oil is simple to obtain--triple wow. And there is plenty of it sitting underground right here in the US--quadruple wow.

Spam can heat my house, fuel my car, transport my goods, and replace all natural fibers? Triple Wow
I have already seen your triple wow and raised you a quadruple wow. Again, oil is a commodity, meaning you do not have to have a car, buy goods transported with oil, or buy clothing from stores. Your choice. But you do not have the automatic right to complain about Exxon making a profit when a) they are in business to make profits, and b) you are seemingly doing nothing to staunch said profits.
