I'm annoyed by the sudden anger with oil companies for paying out big dividends. That's what you're supposed to do in a dying industry - give the money back to your investors so they can go reinvest it in something else. That's what moving away from oil looks like!
Right. I think the schizophrenia comes from "move off of oil, it's bad" and "I wish we were producing more oil, cuz gas is expensive" aren't super compatible.

If the oil industry dies we all die with it.
