We need a space race a'la 1957-1975 version of the oil crisis.
Version 1 : We want to get to the moon and orbit space before everyone else
Version 2 : We want to be the first people to completley remove oil dependency
Both are dramatic, and if anything, Version 2 offers more strategic, economic, and social benefits.
I don't even know what the cure is going to be, hell it could be something real simple, we just need the smartest people in the nation or smartest people captured from other countries to make this happen.
I would imagine even someone high up in government just mentioning such a proposition would make OPEC weak in the knees and start increasing output like some sort of cocaine addiction
