Americans in the lower to middle income brackets are in pain these days because of energy costs – the surging per gallon price of gasoline hits a store clerk much harder than a megamillionaire Washington politician or a movie star.
But leftists believe it's not hitting hard enough yet.
How do we know?
Former Obama Treasury official Mark Mazur told us so.
In fact, as the gasoline prices in America reach levels never before seen, there's been discussion of a holiday from the federal gas tax – to cut the costs for consumers.
No, said Mazur.
That, in fact, "undercuts the administration's climate change goals – where really to care about fossil-fuel consumption, we don't want lower prices for fossil-fuel buyers, we prefer higher prices," he said.
Attacking energy supplies for American consumers isn't new with the Joe Biden administration. Obama did it while president, back when Biden was vice president. Under their second term, some 43,000 megawatts of energy production from coal was abandoned in America.

Meanwhile here in Mexifornia, Gruesome Newsom won’t increase oil production. We’ve got a lot of oil here.
May this tree hugger have a tree fall on him.
We know that. We can see the goals of the Biden admin. What is so depressing to me is that my neighbors in the blue part of Ohio don’t see it, or refuse to acknowledge it.
They are pleased that there are no mean tweets.
Nothing like a True Believer.
Our elites/oligarchs have been determined to reduce our standard of living for years, especially as jobs have been moved to Asia. Rather than dealing with the clamoring of the billions in their new middle classes for the trappings that should accompany those jobs (private autos, detached single-family homes, families/children, paid vacations), the elites figured they’d just eliminate those things in the West.
Many Americans under 30 would concede that they have succeeded.
‘We don’t want’ lower prices for gas: Global warming apologists exposed Protecting consumers ‘undercuts the administration’s climate change goals’
Any Republican hopeful, worth the name, MUST re iterate that statement, non-stop during his/her campaigning!!
Solving a non-problem, kudos to them!
Russian state owned company Roszarubezhneft, which translated into English means “Russian foreign oil”, handles up tp 80% of Venezuelan oil production. That is what Putin was referring to the other day when he was snickering about Biden banning Russian domestic oil production in favor of buying Russian foreign oil production interests. Basically, Biden is wanting to use Russian foreign oil to break sanctions he imposed on Russian domestic oil. lol Time for Biden to go back to the oil begging drawing board. Maybe he would like to try Canada or lifting bans on US producers this time.
By making fuel, fertilizer, and pesticide costs unreachable for the poor in third-world countries, they are condemning millions to death by starvation and disease.
Perhaps that is the unspoken goal of the Gaia worshipers.
Well, they have liberal comedians such as Stephen Colbert telling them to get a Tesla. They listen to the ramblings of Colbert telling them it’s good to pay more for gas because somehow that is virtue signaling against Putin.
Poverty is joy.
Forward comrades!
Affordable, reliable energy is a very important factor to developing and maintaining a thriving middle class. Wannabe Rulers hate that. A vibrant middle class is not dependent upon the state for their daily lives, and Lefties lust over the power to RULE people.
Then I guess you are ok with:
Higher food prices
Higher heating bills
Higher EVERYTHING.
Colbert recommending that is as callous as asking panhandlers if they accept credit cards; the audience is too stupid to understand that.
While I oppose communism/socialism/anarchism, we can certainly understand how their revolutions often involve lining up rich detached people against a wall and shooting them. They never seem to lack volunteers for the firing squads...
Let them eat cake.
Succinct and true.
If it goes Solyndra on him he and his cohorts face a very slow and torturous ending. These are global banking entities whose money he is holding in his funds. There must be death to oil. That's who's running Bidens energy policy. Blackrock even installed the fund manager into the Whitehouse staff as an insurance policy. We all know how much those little weasels love insurance policies. Sound familiar?
Their goal, yes. Unspoken? No. They've been pretty vocal about it. They just don't get much media attention when they do.
