This isn't interfering with the oil industry, this is interfering with externalizers.
I can't help it if a bunch of Maine liberals hijacked Texas' oil and y'all started thinking they were the Right.

So your argument is that it is Right not to externalize costs. How does one avoid "externalizing" the safety of the US in a hostile geopolitical environment? Are you suggesting that it is only people who use petroleum products who should bear the cost of the instability in the Middle East?
Okay, what's the tax rate on the oil used to fire the generators that supply your power? Do you use heating oil or gas to heat your water or your apartment/house? What about the tax on your public transportation?
Your answer raises more questions than your original argument.
