The politics of oil are particularly tricky for Democrats, whose chances for victory in next year’s elections can hinge on whether young, climate-focused voters come out in big numbers.

Imagine supporting fascism because gas prices are high, this sort of voter is one of the problems with democracy, it kind of falls apart when people aren’t educated.
And the reason people care about the gas prices is because of the jobs they are forced to drive to instead of remote work. Not mention remote work is a nono just to keep commercial real estate high. So really commercial landowners are the root of this.
Bad urban planning is the cause of this. Going to work can be done on foot, via bicycle or using trains. All of those do not really use oil, if done right.
Yeah but many jobs are at a international level. People do not need to be in office if the people they work with are in another continent. Like customer service for example has no reason to have a call center.
