I heard it's because the oil industry is no longer interested in investing in the future, but in maximizing profits now instead, and that Russia is a red herring

Not enough abortions. The price has only gone up since these restrictive laws have passed.

Rising gas prices were an attempt to distract.

According to the stickers I see on a lot of the gas pumps around here it's something Biden did.

Correlation/causation again. Prices were pretty low with Trump.

The Economist wrote: America intervened to stabilise the global oil market. Scott Bessent, the country’s treasury secretary, said that America would issue a 30-day sanctions waiver for Russian oil on ships already bound for India. Mr Bessent said the “stop-gap measure” would keep oil flowing in the global market during the Iran conflict. Separately, America waived sanctions indefinitely on the German subsidiary of Rosneft, a Russian oil giant.
