Like this guy. The keystone pipeline was going to take oil to Canada and they were going to sell it overseas. It wasn't going to lower our energy costs.

You inspired me to read up on it , and you were partially right , I didn't fully understand the way keystone works. I didn't realize it was a unique extra nasty type of oil , tar sands. But you're also mistaken because the oil is coming From Canada and to our gulf coast refineries like in Texas.

Also it would make more oil available to us , and it would reduce our dependence on foreign oil. Do you know why they were going to send it overseas? Because we were producing so much under DJT we had a surplus that allowed us to export and sell it ourselves. Now we are importing again under Biden, from our enemies. Further the company that Biden shutdown to get the pipeline operating is suing us for 15 billion dollars for breach of contract under NAFTA or some shit.

To that guy who asked for my source on how much oil and gas we have , it's easy to find on Google if you don't believe me. We have a shitload waiting to be drilled

People would argue that dems would do those things, it's just pesky republicans who got in the way. If there were only enough dems in charge people would be able to pass legislation that actually matters.

You know, like how in California where they have a HUGE dem majority they were able to pass universal healthca--- oh wait.

Biden took office in the midst of a pandemic.

Biden also had to follow up on the shit Trump pulled to make the rich richer.

And yeah, a war just started, involving Russia, who has a large amount of oil.

Gas became expensive right after Biden became president. Life is pretty much normal now, so food shouldn't be so damn expensive. Covid isn't an excuse. It's because of Biden.

Enough with the shit takes. One man is not responsible for the global economy.

TC, you do understand that the president has no control over gas prices or food prices, right?
Can I hold you to it that after Biden announces a ban on Russian energy imports, it wont affect gas prices?

Yes. Because, IN THEORY, that still shouldn't affect gas prices, as we have the ability to domestically produce 5 time the amount of crude oil that we consume.

The oil companies are choosing to not tap into those resources though, as it gives them a reason to inflate their prices.

There are currently over 9000 drilling stations that have been given the clear to begin drilling, and the oil companies are choosing not to tap into them.

Why? To continue to create a false case of limited supply.

Regardless of domestic availability, isn't gas price still tied into the global price?

They won't do that because high prices benefit them. Why should they act to lower prices if people are buying the same amount anyways?

It's funny seeing the same people who blamed everything on Trump act like nothing is Bidens fault.

For one thing he shutdown progress on Keystone and cut back on drilling because he wants to get us off fossil fuel. Sad thing is , no matter how hard we try people are going to be needing gas and oil for decades. There's no way around it and we have tons of gas and oil here ready to go.

And instead of drilling here where there are more regulations to Try and keep it safe , we have to buy hundreds of thousands of barrels a day from Russia, directly funding their war effort. Or OPEC , Iran , and Venezuela. Actually putting money in the pockets of dictators who hate us , that's happening right now and is definitely Biden policy.

Just some quick points...

Biden is actually outpacing Trump on permits granted to drill on public land. After setting a record for the largest offshore lease sale last year in the gulf of Mexico, the Interior Department plans to auction off oil and gas drilling right on more than 200,000 acres across Wester states by the end of this month, followed by 1 million acres in the Cook Inlet, off the coast of Alaska.

There are also currently over 9000 untapped oil refineries in US that the oil companies have been given permits to use, but choose not to, in order to control prices. Biden cannot force them to drill.

Because of these companies refusal to drill and refine domestically, we are forced to import. If we were to stop importing crude oil from other countries, we would be paying in excess of $10 a gallon, because the domestic oil companies would basically be able to name their price.

Most of the US potential oil is in the form of oil shale and is more expensive to extract than crude oil.

Theres are basically 5 factors that control the price of gasoline:

Taxes
Ease of Distribution
Marketing Costs
Refinery Costs
Crude Oil Prices

The US can produce enough crude oil for us to be self reliant. IF the domestic oil companies tap into their resources
