Democraps love Big Oil. Big Oil gives them lots of cash. Every time a democrap gets in office oil prices increase and Big Oil has record profits.

“House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Thursday said that oil companies should be forced to use drilling permits or lose them

Raúl Grijalva (D-Ariz.) told The Climate 202 yesterday that he strongly supports this approach, adding that leadership wants to invite the chief executives of oil companies to testify before his panel about their unused drilling permits. “Big Oil and Big Gas need to be held accountable.”

The Big Oil Windfall Profits Tax Act would slap a 50 percent tax on profits that oil companies earn above a $66-per-barrel price — the average price from 2015 through 2019 — and send half of that revenue to taxpayers.:

so: take away issued drilling permits, haul oil CEOs before Congress and grill the evil bastards, legislate new taxes on oil ... yep, folks, typical Democrat Bizzaro World “solutions” for real world problems ...

The top 2 oil refiners - Marathon and Valero - don’t produce oil, they buy it to convert into fuel. And the country’s largest refinery - in Texas - owned by the Saudis.

Raul Grijalva is a Marxist who has never found a viable solution to any problem. Sad, but Arizona Chicanos are not an intellectual match for their Texas cousins.

The permitting process to actually create a producing well is too complex for the media to explain. Therefore, it does not exist.

Thus, have a drilling permit, dry hole or not, dwarves come at night and presto, producing well.

If the oil company raises the price of production, they are gouging.

Serfs will learn to walk.

One of the problems democrats have is the pink hat wearing soccer moms and men that drive premium gas guzzling luxury cars. At some point these people will vote their pocket books.

High gas prices are announced at every gas station across America every day for everyone to see.

The rat pricks can’t escape their failed economic policy. The rat party is dead in 2022.

And screw all you simpleton, brainwashed defeatists on FR who can’t see it.
