Your only option for fuel is to buy less or pay what the oil monopolies set prices at. They don't compete with each other. They just share market and rake in our cash!
But can't you just choose to make more money, so relative to your income you pay less of your income for energy? Or you can choose to pay for less by using less.
I cannot choose to use less government services, and therefore pay less for government.
Your argument is not valid. I cannot legally escape taxes by using less government.
You can legally escape paying so much to big oil by using less oil.
Talk about monopolies, I can't pick from a variety of governments in my town.
I can choose from any number of gas stations from which to buy my fuel.
Sorry, the biggest monopoly is the government, at all levels.
