Oil is of the past. It is running out. If we continue to drill for oil, we will run out sooner rather than later and will then have to face the consequences. But if we find a more sustainable source of power now (e.g. solar power, wind power, wave power), we won't have to deal with the moment we use up the last drop of Earth's oil.
I believe that instead of spending all this money on the making and installing the oil rigs, we should spend it on research towards things like solar roadways (watch the video below), wave power to fuel things like electric cars, and encouraging the people of our country to travel less and less by car. I also believe that to achieve the latter, we must reduce the amount of vehicles on the road by taking away car lanes and adding lanes for other forms of transport, such as bikes and electric trains and buses. This will provide more options for people to get from one place to another. This can all be reality.
That is, if we start today.
