I am currently traveling in northern California and laugh every time I see the diesel generators “enclosed” beside the EV charging stations. Climate change is a hoax and is just a tool for the left.
Beside gasoline, heating oil and natural gas, what other important product do we get from crude oil? Plastics. It is in everything. Don’t worry, we can always import it from China.
Imagine this alternate history scenario. Trump wins in 2020 and we are still energy independent. Russia invade Ukraine and threatens the oil and gas supplies to Western Europe. We double down on exporting to Europe to counter the threat. The Russians are fighting a military and economic war.
The left doesn't seem to understand that people take risks for a return on investment, not out of a charitable nature. Would the world be a pleasanter place if everything and everyone were equal? Doubtful. Ayn Rand had some excellent points about eliminating the profit motive. Meritocracy mostly works because it motivates, whether the left likes it or not.
Erick, it's a nice sentiment to give a gas stipend, but just know, this isn't temporary. Gas prices won't magically go down to $2 when (if?!?) a Repub pres is elected in 2024. My folks don't work as hard when remote. Plus anything like this I would have to pass on to my customers in the form of higher charges.
Gas prices will come down. They will. We saw it when BHO was in office with three to four dollar gas prices. As soon as Donald Trump took office and began opening up drilling again, relaxing regulations, and working with the oil companies we dropped back down. If we can reverse the government interference with the fuel supply in this country, the lives of average Americans would be much better.
Biden and his leftist cronies know exactly what drives energy prices and how necessary fossil fuels are to our country! But they don't care about reality, just how they can manipulate everything to gain control! They DON'T care about any of us!
Even Forrest Gump likely understands that failure to use the resources one has in hand leads to economic suicide. But for some reason a large group of people who have large (on paper) IQs are basket cases in levels of common sense and completely devoid of wisdom. Large scale shifts must be done gradually as our national prosperity is built on cheap, abundant energy. Yes, pursue technology by all means. Our national greenhouse emissions have declined every year since 2002. Dramatic shifts are not necessary but for the alarmist shrieking of the environmentalist left. By the way, shouldn't the Arctic cap be gone by now? I digress. The empirical fact is that we are making progress and will eventually get there, just without the centrally planned dreams of the radical left being fulfilled. So America, it is time to assess who is serving who. We do that in a voting booth. Your turn!
There is probably enough oil and gas under the surface of the earth to last well into the future, given that only a fairly small proportion of the total surface has ever been prospected. But there is now a risk that the world will go into economic decline through self-imposed limits on this. And without the oil and gas still permitted it would be even worse than it now is. If Mr Trump can do anything to help when or if he returns, this will be a bonus!
Does this stooge not understand where electricity comes from. You CANNOT store solar or wind energy. Right now we are experiencing power outages because of storms and high heat. I believe that this will be the norm without weather influences. You cannot generate enough electricity without using fossil fuels. Any person with a brain should realize that. Maybe Joe and all the rest of the Green people need to go live among the Amish. Although I would not wish that wonderful group of people.

Yep, buy the Plastics from China, when ever they would sell it to us.

Biden's letter to the oil companies used the term, " time of war."
Forget "Putin's war." The real war is "Biden's war" on the oil industry, which began on January 20, 2021.

At least the old man is alive now to witness his damage. Not that he cares….
Even at his age, Biden is not mature enough to admit mistakes.
Truth is he's never been good at anything except graft and grift.
Great comments again right to the end.
