Almost all of that figure is "breathing pollutants, and environmental damage". Not the government giving Exxon money. Which first off, I wouldn't really call a subsidy, and second, is unquantifiable. You can't tally up the cost of breathing polluted air as if it's a line item in a balance sheet.

For me, that casts some serious doubts on the accuracy of the $5.8T figure.
