The key words in your statement were "so people can have cheap gasoline". My point was your solution to provide cheap gasoline is no solution at all.
Of course the fact that the only cost benefit to consumers would take about 20 years and would only amount to an estimated 10-20 cents per gallon savings isn't ultimately that beneficial. In the interim, we'd likely be plagued by numerous Deepwater Horizon-type events. The only people who'd really benefit is Big Oil and it's investors.
Add to that toxic tack Fracking and "Clean Coal" (there is no such thing) and you can say goodbye to the America we once knew, and the planet.
