The problem is that we have been controlling the price of fossil fuels and not allowing the power of actual capitalism to reward innovation. In the past 20 years the price of oil have ranged from $127 to 18 dollars a barrel while the price of gas has stayed relatively stable. In any other industry this would be considered price fixing. It is not in our national interest to stay with resources that require price controls to keep it stable. We need energy independence and renewables will provide that. Maintaining our current system is only benefiting those who currently control those resources and many of them are bad actors.
