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.

Yes, I think Ehrlich is the likely winner of the award for The Most Consistently Wrong Lefty.
Those people have huge trust funds and never need to work or even understand the idea of work. One guy I knew got a check for $40,000 a week, and another had 2 trust funds.
The could care less what things cost.
It’s almost time.
Pretty soon the gas lines will look like some walmarts when fights break out.
Oops. They said the quiet part out loud.

Tried to warn people.
The important thing to then was ‘hope and change’ and ‘transgender’ and other lies.

Meanwhile, Global Warming is a fool’s errand for the simple.
Yes, the mask has dropped completely, and way too many are just fine with it.
How you going to generate the electricity for all those 10s of millions of electric cars you think people are going to buy?
80% of our electric energy system is dependent on nuclear and fossil fuels for power generations.
And no, you cannot just wish really hard that “renewabes” will magically over come their efficiency, reliability and cost issues to replace our current generating system. Europe been trying to do this, with a much bigger nuclear power foot print then the US has, and it has completely failed.
The fact of the matter is fossil fuels will be a critical part of US energy production for at least the next 50-80 years. No magic combination of government anti fossil fuel regulation and media hyped climate change panic porn is going to change that reality.
The Climate Panic Porn Left, lead by Bare Shelves Biden, is trying to put the cart before the horse. They are trying to destroy the existing system with no workable replacement system available.
