Wen oil was $11 to $12 nobody in the US or US administration cried or asked to bring prices up in equilibrium. Maybe because that was fair market price? I don't remember any oil cartel actions back then, do you? Seems to me there was a lot of oil back then and not that much demand. Secondly as stock prices are so overpriced why not ask the US government to place a special tax (in addition to income tax) on stocks that rise to fast let say over 10% a year?? They are doing the equivalent by artificially raising interest rates above free market levels. Perhaps you have heard about that.
