We should be working to make your first statement false. Second, we
have enough KNOWN oil fields in the US to last quite some time. The
estimated UNknown oil fields should last well beyond their lifetime.

This is the second time someone (I know who) has suggested increasing
gas prices for the sake of conserving gas. I'm not sure what the logic
is behind making the oil companies richer and the poor poorer. It
would seem that alternative fuels and more efficient vehicles would be
the route to take instead - but maybe I'm missing something?
