This is unfortunately true, but if we don't find another way, we just continue the cycle and make oil companies even richer.

See, right now what we have is not a case of capitalism. Capitalism is Walmart and Target competing for business by trying to have lower prices. What we have here is a case of monopoly in that every company is conspiring together to raise prices. Somehow we need to find a way to stop that.
