Apparently the idea that oil and coal were the product of fossil remains of ancient life was a theory that somebody came up with in something like 1857 and it has never been challenged or examined since then. The only foundation for it was the fact when you are mining coal you will see fossils in the coal seam. It was simply assumed that the plants that had produced those fossil imprints in the coal were the source of the coal itself. Maybe / Maybe not... maybe there was a layer of fossil debris that had been covered over and petroleum bubbled up into it, saturated it, soaked it, and over time it simply hardened... because that is all that coal really is. Petroleum that has hardened. It may well be that there is a lot more down there because there have been a lot of oil fields that have been emptied out, but people would come back later and they are filling up again.

Now they are starting to drill oil from layers in the earth that are older than life on earth. The only thing that is down there are these microbes that seem to produce vast amounts of methane... methane + heat and pressure makes the long chain hydrocarbons that are petroleum. Of course, they are not going to admit it because if oil is everywhere and easy to get, then we expect oil prices to go down and in the USA we're constantly being told its scarce.

Business in the entire west boost their profits by convincing you that goods that are actually available in unlimited supply are rare and limited. One of the reasons for war in the middle east is to raise prices... the oil companies can claim they are not sure if they can get their cheap oil from ME countries anymore so they have to inflate their prices. There is a huge amount of oil in the Americas that remains untouched. There is enough oil in Alaska to run the USA for the next 200 years but the goal isn't cheap energy and cheap housing for the American people, its profits to the corporations. Control of the oil in order to control the economies of other countries to force them to go along with Americas debt.
