> We've known for some time that our gasoline is artificially cheap.

I dispute that.  Many other nations simply have far higher gas taxes causing
their resulting total gas prices to be artificially higher than ours.  If
they
would stop hurting their citizens with high gas taxes, they too would have
prices like ours - or lower!

Actually, we have significant oil reserves in the USA, not enough to
satisfy all the demand, but more than Wester Europe has.
