If they are saving the planet, then why did you say “the Democratic Party has pursued policies designed to drive up the cost of petroleum” in the opening line of your post? You deliberately made it sound like driving up the cost of petroleum is their number one goal.
Perhaps driving up the cost of petroleum is a side effect of the attempt to save the planet, but democrats are most certainly not “pursuing policies designed to drive up the cost of petroleum.” They are pursuing policies designed to save the planet. An unwelcome, but acceptable, side effect, is an increase in the cost of petroleum.
