I think you're being downvoted because you suggest allocating a limited resource to a method that has better alternatives.

So the tax credits should go to well drilling? And how is a tax credit a limited resource, when the US ran a deficit of over $1 trillion last year?

No, the tax credits should go to more efficient measures for atmospheric carbon capture. Tax credits are a limited resource because money's only use is to buy limited resources. If you increase the money supply to infinity, money loses its meaning.

No you’re being downvoted because you’re suggesting the worse methane synthesis method should get subsidized when a better alternative exists.
