re: It has little to do with current profit levels, its a redution in an expense.

Profit/expense are related, no? The fact remains that there is very little oil left to find in the US; it's not going to have more than an incremental impact on the problem of oil imports. It does cheer the hearts of energy executives/political contributors. Where as conservation does not make them feel great... lower sales and subsequent lower energy prices hit their bottom line.

Conservation/efficiency can have a major impact on the problem. So we should throw the money at the best potential solution, the biggest bang for the buck.
