The reason for high prices is increased scarcity. The way to solve that is to make it worthwhile for producers to increase supplies. Ease restrictions on new refineries and oil drilling, get rid of taxes on gasoline, and stop threatening to nuke Iran. That would solve the "crisis" very quickly.

No wonder US policymakers prefer not to talk about the causes of terrorism.
