His "climate program"...is attached to the bill they're trying to strangle us with....to the tune of MORE THAN half a trillion. It pretty much kills the fossil fuel market.

The other new thing is wanting to convert gas stoves/furnaces to electric. They have no idea what they're doing.

“Who in their right mind would invest in energy infrastructure in this country? You never know day-to-day what court, government agency or hippies are going to stop the project on the thinnest of reasons. No, there is no assurance of stability in the regulatory environment. In fact this government goes out of it’s way to be unstable. “

I have made this point before. These are all high capital, multiyear to decades long projects. The potential of the rug pulled out from under them is now never more than two to four years away. And this will still be true with an all Republican, business friendly government.

Biden snd co made decisions... 1 was to cut the pipeline. They make decisions from passion.. revenge... climate ..and dumb steps lead to bad consequences.

If they had continued with what works...
But they are not very smart.

He has done everything he can to get prices up on “fossil fuels”

There is now record oil and gas and near coal production under Biden.

The problem is OPEC cut back, wall street speculation, shortages in Europe and Asia are driving up prices.

Good article in Forbes is explaining what is happening.

Exactly!
As long as the prices rise slowly, they’ll be fine. Like Obama only minded the spikes that ticked his constituents off.

“Who in their right mind would invest in energy infrastructure in this country?”

A record amount of new gas wells where approved in my area in 2021 and new pipelines, pumping stations etc are going in like crazy.

The Marcellus Utica gas reserves i Ohio Wva and PA have pumped out a record gas production in 2021 under Biden. Largest production amount n their history. No I am not giving credit to Biden.

Don’t believe the end of fossil fuels. Natural gas production will be around for decades to come.

Large corporations/fossil fuel co’s control our energy system not the politicians.

Biden and his commies did this to us and they did it on purpose.

Massive inflation to follow - then rationed food - then starvation and boot grinding into faces 'control'?

Thanks to black democrats for inflicting this idiot Biden (and his thugs) on the country for four years. We will NOT forget...

Yep. The White House is utterly helpless. COMPLETELY HELPLESS!

They could NEVER put the various pipelines they decommissioned, back into operation. IMPOSSIBRU!

They could never restore drilling on Federal land. IMPOSSIBRU!

They could never back off their declared hostility to fossil fuels! IMPOSSIBRU!

They could never walk back some of their absurd Climate Change initiatives! IMPOSSIBRU!
