Robbing us into environmental submission?

Ok, I had this idea in a fit on boredom, but tell me what you guys think. Are the powers that be trying to force a change in our environmental habits by increasing the cost of fossil energy? After all, wouldn't most people seek an environmentally friendly alternative to driving if it hit them where it counts, in the wallet.

I found this blog about it in a quick google search, so it looks like I'm not the only one who thinks so.

But in the end, could the Illuminati, Masons, Bilderbergers, Reptilians, NWO or whoever trying to force a change in our lifestyles to better protect the planet?

Now theres one I haven't heard.

Different, controversial, I like it.

I believe the cost increase is to ease environmental rules and to open up more drilling offshore. People will think 'yes' if it will stop the cost increases. This should work like a charm.

This is algoros dream, he wrote it in his crappy book. He and all other liberal half-wits want the price of gas to be as high as possible so people stop driving cars.

What's so bad about attempting to change the way people use fossil fuels? Wouldn't it be best to use alternative forms of energy?

the answer is obvious, namely that it depends on the alternative:
