Or, and hear me out, we go to the oil company owners and remove them. Eh? Slashing prices!

We used to have that. Look up the history of PetroCan.

Created as a crown Corp by a liberal government with the intention of keepingahandleon prices, and then privatized by a conservative government (because that's what rhy do to crown corps).
