Biden WH Intentionally Making Energy MORE EXPENSIVE


Quote:
it's unimaginable that anyone but our enemies would want to raise our energy prices to the point where our economy collapses and yet that is exactly what the Biden administration has decided to do and to do it, they're using twin instruments of climate policy and their war against Russia.

The effect? In a nation with the largest recoverable oil reserves on planet Earth, many Americans can no longer afford fossil fuels and once again, this is not an accident. It's not a natural cycle we're going through. Politicians and policymakers are doing it to us on purpose. Now that the midterm elections are over, the media can finally begin to cover the inevitable result of these policies. CNN, for example, just ran an article about Americans who are worried about freezing to death over the winter in America.

One 63-year-old woman in Philadelphia called Charmaine Johnson said that she is torn between heating her home and buying food and of course, she's choosing food because she has no choice. "It's miserable," she said. "It's like living in an igloo." Another man, a 67-year-old man called Tim Wiseley said he turns on his heat only when his teeth begin to chatter. "You can't go food shopping and get oil. It's one or the other," he said. "It's a horrible feeling. It's a feeling I wouldn't wish on anyone." It's a feeling that Americans have not had in generations.

Biden's group did recently approve an oil export facility ... you know so when they release oil from the strategic reserves it will be easier to add to the world supply.

Of course, Biden did. Highly unlikely he ever had an original thought in his life.

I am not sure it is all on purpose, Biden and his cast of idiots have no idea of the possible fallout from their policies. They are like the people that think criminals concern themselves with gun laws.

Don't kid yourself. Leftists know exactly what they have to do to bring this nation to its knees, which is the only their only hope in reconstructing it in their ideological image. This is their modus operandi. Intentionally create the problem so that they can eventually get to play the hero in fixing it, thereby hopefully winning most of the public's support.

The enemy is already within our gates and has been for many decades.

Are you looking in the mirror again? The local liberal talking point parrot has no business calling anyone an idiot.

2 months ago the social administration sent me a notice that i was getting a $130 a month raise in benefits. that sounds great even though i have to pay about $30 of that for income taxes that i already paid years ago. so that leaves me with a nice round $100 more than i was getting. this week i got notified by medicare that part b has gone up from $135 a month to now $170. so thats ok because i still have $65 left from my raise. but now i also got hit from Blue Cross Blue Shield that my supplemental plan has gone up from $240 per month to $280 per month which still leaves me ahead $25 a month that i can put forward for the increase in gasoline, heat, food and other insurance premium raises that i am forced to carry like car and home insurance. my car insurance went up $180 for the year and home insurance went up $2000 for the year.

i still have to count my lucky stars because i got a break on the other side of things that overcomes all this inflation. i got the CAW out of the win pools in New York and Kentucky is now giving me penny breakage!

The White House would probably say they insurance companies are evil and price gouging. I got hit with the exact same car insurance increase, went from $300 to $390 every 6 months. That makes sense as it matches the increase in the cost of used cars. As for the house, the cost of materials for home repair and construction have gone sky high.
