They need some way to pay for all their green energy sources.
Their ethanol and bio-scam programs consume more energy that they produce and that gets expensive after a while. the government has to subsidize it so they need a source of revenue to pay for their money-losing green programs.
They sell oil to pay for something that replaces oil.
Makes perfect sense in the bizzaro universe.
