    Biden has been on the taxpayer dole for what, 75, 100 years? he is so far removed from reality. Also, where are the daily death count reports from Covid that the media was so fond of reporting before we even had a vaccine? I am sickened by people who voted Democrat and brought this upon the nation

    Joe Biden promised to be a great uniter, and he's keeping his promise.

    The US's enemies are more united than ever.

    What I posted - with a link - is from EIA. Einstein.

    Do you have a link to EIA to back up your claim?

    So then you can explain how these companies made record profits for the last 2 years by being wrong so often ? These leases cost hundreds of millions of dollars, and in some cases billions of dollars, and you think these companies just wing it and hope they pay off ?

    I just love how the right is now contorting themselves so badly to save face after making all these BS claims that Biden is somehow responsible for gas prices...

    You WANT to pay more for gasoline?

    Yup, and it did a similar thing here in Southern WI... It went from about $3.09 to $3.99 in a similar time frame.

    Correct... Here, it was about 90 cents in about the same time frame.

    Yup, and here it would be just under $5.00

    They will consider it cheap, relatively speaking... but they would still ultimately consider it expensive because it need not be anywhere near that much.

    This is actually quite true, believe it or not. This is not the cause of soaring gas prices. This, however, IS going to be the new skapegoat for the high prices (since the COVID skapegoat has now been all but declared "done with").

    ... not with the Biden Regime dictating economic/energy policy, THAT'S for damn sure...

    Damn straight! So why do you keep voting Democrat then?? Why do you keep voting for the people who are implementing these shitty economic/energy policies that are causing gas prices to soar astronomically upward?

    You are now stuck in paradox. You just got done saying that the events in Ukraine aren't really affecting gas prices, but now you're saying that those events ARE directly to blame for the high gas prices.

    Which is it??? You need to pick one and completely discard the other in order to return back to holding rational discussion about this matter.

    I've come to the realization that most folks get their news from DNC talking points from the media. They are told that all things Democrat is wonderful.

    The price is going to keep going up for a while.

    After all those years of getting in bed with Putin, you shouldn't be surprised..

    Trump tried to offer you energy independence, but your rejected it, because you were too busy listening to Climate Goblin Thunberg, cancelling pipelines, and chasing your green unicorn farts fairytales, and now Russia and Iran have got us right back over the oil barrel.

    Team Joe made this bed that we're in now.

    The only time since the 1960s we've been energy independent was a while during the Obama years.

    The only way to significantly increase production is fracking, and that's not a long term solution.

    We can, and should, work towards energy independence. But that's not how you do it. The fastest, and easiest way is to improve efficiency. That would get us partway. The next step would be a national energy policy to actually get us there, and upgrade the energy grid while we're at it.

    None of that is going to happen while the Democrats have us chasing unicorn farts.

    We need nuclear plants, and we need them like yesterday.

    The only group that is serious about energy are the Progressives, and I have real doubts as to the depth of their ambition. Americans are reactionaries, and nobody runs fast into that buzzsaw..

    I happen to agree with you, we should be declaring an emergency and building a handful of nuke plants near most major metropolitan areas.

    Face it, Republicans are crazy and useless, and while the Dems are better, they don't want to tackle the tough ones. They remember the price they paid to get Obamacare...

    You want progress, vote Progressive.

    Progressives are the biggest opponents of nuclear energy, and the hardest chasers of unicorn farts.

    Green New Deal Excludes Nuclear And Would Thus Increase ...
    https://www.forbes.com › sites › 2019/02/07 › green-ne...

    Feb 7, 2019 — The Green New Deal proposed by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D) today excludes nuclear energy from the proposed mix.

    Progressives are crazy, and worse than useless. They're dangerously crazy.

    And your link doesnt support your assertions. Made up BS and you are too dishonest to admit it even when the information is spoon fed to you. . Typical.

    obviously from a much more knowledgeable source than you, considering you said keystone wasn’t built nor had oil flowing. Now you switch to keystone xl as an attempt to save face. Sorry too late!

    According to this, you shouldn't be typing on a plastic keyboard of a plastic cased computer, eating any food, using any electricity or running water.

    Any other extreme positions you want to take?

    His actions have been documented why do you keep demanding people post them? Are you asserting he had NO energy policies his first year. None of his first actions were energy related?
    Go educate yourself on the process. Leasing only gives you the right to do so it is jot a drilling PERMIT.

    THEY DON'T COME WITH DRILLING PERMITS. The Biden administration is holding up permitting.

    Biden Delays Oil Permits as Gasoline Prices Surge on Ukraine

    The Biden administration has delayed issuing permits for new oil and gas drilling on federal land, a move that could complicate efforts to tame gasoline prices that are poised to top $4 per gallon amid the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

    Stop swallowing the misinformation from the MSM and White House.

    Your meme. According to your post, we shouldn't be commenting on the price of gas because the Ukraine was attacked by Russia.

    Lovely language, stay classy!
