Some gas is needed for firming and "last resort" purposes, but I don't even think we need any additional supply beyond what we have (especially if we cut some of our exports).

I'll include non-fiction books that are based on academic works but aren't aimed at an academic audience. They can use footnotes so they are not too distracting, but some of us do want those sources.
And they are not even the only comedians doing this. It's basically a trope at this point.

Say some gangsta is making you get up at 4 to do scientific experiments.
You just give em one of these!
Now are you gonna buy some wigs or ain't ya?
Kellyanne Conway, senior member of the 2016 Trump admin, wanted people to look into Trump's heart for the truth:
You can't give him the benefit of the doubt on this and he's telling you what was in his heart, you always want to go with what's come out of his mouth rather than look at what's in his heart
I think in an ideal world, I’d set speed limits to be higher than they are now - say, (spitballing) 100mph for interstates.
I suspect many cars on the road can't even be driven safely at that speed, and then you have to account for the driving ability of the average person.
You'd have more cases where there are high speed differentials too with some only going 60mph, and others going 100mph, increasing the amount of passing.
My gut tells me that, just due to the relatively sparse density of cars, rural driving is already significantly safer, and if you DO drive like shit, you’re likely to only injure yourself.
Fatalities are typically more common in rural areas (proportional to population). Likely because of higher speed roads and higher drink driving rates in rural areas. And maybe due to truck drivers and people driving long distances driving sleep deprived.
The second and arguably more important component is that conservatives strongly believe in social hierarchies (even if they are themselves near the bottom). So it doesn't actually matter if their lives get worse, as long as the lives of people below them (i.e. minorities) are even more miserable. In addition, they believe the rich should stay rich and maintain or increase their power, because they naturally deserve it (this would have been the monarchy and the landed gentry/nobility etc in the past).
