Bullshit!He isn't going to take the actions needed to do this. No one will.
There are no shortages. The issue is hedge funds running the prices up just because they can. Make it like it used to be where only end users bid on oil and prices fall since need is being met.
Bullshit!
Prices in my state; Washington, because our Biden-clone governor Inslee and his socialist-fascist supporters imposed a "carbon tax" which added another $0.50 to our gas prices at the start of this year (on top of already excessive state taxes). We are now in the range $5.00 +/- a dime or so, per gallon.
We have 2-3 refineries in our state BTW.
They do affect consumer prices.Individual taxes do not affect market prices.
They do affect consumer prices.
In the case of my states "carbon tax" it is levied against businesses that use petroleum and they pass that on to customers/consumers.

Add geography to lessons you need to study.
Biden's stupidity and economic ignorance affects everyone in the USA (and the World for that matter).
Taken from his bio on Wiki;
...
Born in Scranton, Pennsylvania, Biden moved with his family to Delaware in 1953. He studied at the University of Delaware before earning his law degree from Syracuse University. He was elected to the New Castle County Council in 1970 and to the U.S. Senate in 1972. As a senator, Biden drafted and led the effort to pass the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act and the Violence Against Women Act; and oversaw six U.S. Supreme Court confirmation hearings, including the contentious hearings for Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas. Biden ran unsuccessfully for the Democratic presidential nomination in 1988 and 2008. In 2008, Barack Obama chose Biden as his running mate, and Biden was a close counselor to Obama during his two terms as vice president. In the 2020 presidential election, Biden and his running mate, Kamala Harris, defeated incumbents Donald Trump and Mike Pence.

Notice there is no significant (any) experience in wealth creating/free enterprise sector. Rather a lifetime/career living of redistributed wealth/Guv'mint; i.e. OPM (Other People's Money).
Much like many posters here.
Same here.I'm not defending Biden. I'm addressing the actual problem.
Same here.
My point is that it's largely Federal and State taxes that cause gasoline to cost what it does. And why the cost varies from state to state, or USA vs Canada.
Production and market costs are already competitive enough to keep profit margins low. If Joe mandates a retail price limit than producers will likely end production rather than take financial loss. This would greatly reduce supply and that would be more devastating than the current situation.
No you aren'tI'm not defending Biden. I'm addressing the actual problem.
No you aren't
Biden's anti fossil fuel agenda is the problem. It makes the speculators pay higher prices because of his restrictive policies.
Fake shit is still fake shitIt's been noted many times that we are pumping as much oil as ever. There are no shortages.
Fake shit is still fake shit
Why do you push it?Indeed.
Russia Russia Russia ? A Call to the Ukrainian Leader ??Fake shit is still fake shit

So let's get this straight. Potato Head Joe continues to attack oil companies which obviously is going to increase gasoline prices, and in the same breath, he now vows to cut gasoline prices.Joe Biden vowed on Thursday to get gasoline prices down, one day after a report showed that consumer inflation surged by the most in 14 months due to higher energy costs.
"I'm going to get those gas prices down again, I promise you," Biden told an audience in Maryland during a speech on the economy.
Hmm, where the hell was potato head as prices were going up? Or is this where the loons on the left say the President has no control over the price of gas?
