Anywhere But Here

Post by Riddick » 03-08-2022 05:19 PM

The Biden administration’s energy policies could not possibly be less coherent. From Day 1 it moved aggressively to suppress fossil fuel production in the U.S. The inevitable result has been a sharp rise in the prices of oil and gas. Having caused the problem, the administration has now set out to remedy it by buying gas and oil wherever it can be found–outside of the U.S.

No discussion of incoherence would be complete without a contribution from Kamala Harris. She explains $4 a gallon gas is part of a grand plan to “transition” transportation–a plan that has now reached a “turning point.” As always, the Democrats want expensive gas but don’t want to take political responsibility for it.

The American people, on the other hand, are not conflicted about $4/gal gasoline. They want the price to come down, & they understand, at a basic level, the law of supply and demand. Thus, Rasmussen finds that a whopping 70% of likely voters want “the U.S. government [to] encourage increased oil and gas production to reduce America’s dependence on foreign sources of oil and gas.”

Only 18% of likely voters agree with Biden’s energy policies, to the extent they can intelligibly be described. Another thing voters are right about: 88 percent say “energy policy will be important in this year’s congressional elections, including 60% who say it will be Very Important.” That spells trouble for the Democrats.
