You are "worried" about the poor small scale oil producers, when in reality these people are anything but poor. No, I'm worried about the oil they produce. We're better off with it than without it. You're the one worried about those "rich oil barons" making too much money and hoping they get cut down to size. What about the people who have been layed off and can't make enough money to stay in their homes or feed their family or send their kids to college? They're better off with the rich oil barons producing more oil here too. The hordes of poor homeless starving Americans aren't hurt by the existence of rich oil barons. In fact, some of them may become poor homeless and starving because a rich oil baron lays them off when they shut down their stripper wells.
