This is a monopoly and a very corrupt one. Not only that, but some of that oil money goes to fund Al Qaida.

usually politically neutral Petroleum Institute was actively backing deregulation which was the cornerstone of Bush-Cheney-Enron types push to jack up prices, expand drilling into wildlife sanctuaries and national parks and knock down environmental laws.

So you think that the effect of deregulation that expends drilling will increase prices? Yikes. Any basic Econ student would know that a shift out in the supply curve would decrease price.
