Because I have investments in it. I am a buy & hold type guy. The problem with this setup is that it is supposed to encourage new production, new drilling, new refineries because businesses can make more money. But, there will be a point where the oil supply doesn't keep up and can't be increased.
I don't see this leading to wide-spread poverty though. It will be an adjustment and people may need to learn to cut-back, use alternative transportation, or car-pool places.
