Agreed 100%. Some commentators are saying KEEP the high price of oil (See Charles Krauthammer, etc). The reasoning is that it will help WEAN people off expensive gas guzzling/inefficient cars and onto hybrids and the next generation of super efficient cars. All this WITHOUT government mandates and strong arm tactics. They reason that the CONSUMER is better at effecting REAL CHANGE in the market than the government. For an example of this dynamic, see the history of AIRBAG adoption in the US. Although the govt was trying to push it along, it was the CONSUMERS' demand for mandatory airbags that got this going and the price per unit started dropping.
