I'd like to know the details on "oil subsidies" one of these days. It's talked about a lot, but what specifically do they entail, and for what purpose?

All businesses get to write off their expenses, so that cannot be included in what we call "subsidy". When I get time I'll try to look it up, but I've never seen someone post exactly how much the oil industry gets in subsidy, and how it is justified.
