Oil dependency is "bad" insofar as oil is a limited resource, and the sudden increase in this "standard of living" is going to rapidly deplete said resource. Your earlier remark that flippantly degraded wind turbines struck a nerve as that's EXACTLY the kind of thing energy companies need to be investing in
