Well, the prices you and I pay for gas and oil are heavily subsidized. They would double easily if we added in all the costs of our military to secure our oil supplies and the wars we have fought over oil and the tax subsidies and the government bailouts to clean up oil spills' damage to local economies and the environment. Oil really isn't cheap. Our government just makes it look that way by hiding the true costs.
