By "we" I take it you are referring to the oil industry. But those who shape
policies that influence such things as energy are bigger than any industry,
though they have particular corporate interests, such as oil companies.
Presidents, such as Clinton and Dubyah, rarely have any real power but are
front-men for the Establishment. Bush senior was an exception.

The last energy push from DC was under Carter, a Trilateralist. I have not
investigated why that push occurred then, except that it was the Brzezinsky
faction of the power elite, not the cowboys, who were in DC at the time.
