[chesswarsnow]

Sorry bout that,

"The way to create a shortage is by putting a price control in place that encourages people to overconsume and discourages production," says Patrick Hedger, executive director of the Taxpayers Protection Alliance.

1. That buffoon is a wild man and has no understanding.
2. Lower the fucking price if you value you own home.
3. Everything's tide to oil, even your dwelling.
4. Slow down on Biden's crazy approval shit, he Green Lighted Putin to start war with Ukraine, see whats happening there.
5. Joe is a Libtard, plain to see.
6. The Libtard will do what Libtard things.
7. Oil companies must use their wisdom and ignore this idiot.

The Taxpayers Protection Alliance is slamming House Democrats' attempt to place a cap on gas prices, which the tax and spending watchdog group warns could lead to a return to the gas lines of the 1970s.


The Consumer Fuel Price Gouging Prevention Act is currently being considered by the 50-50 Senate after passing the House on Thursday 217-207 with all Republicans voting against the measure.
"The problem is Big Oil is keeping supply artificially low so prices and profits stay high," Rep. Frank Pallone (D-N.J.), chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, said in a hearing last week. "Now I think that when the market is broken, that's when Congress has to step in to protect American consumers. And that's what this bill does: It empowers the FTC to go after the gougers and empowers the agency to effectively monitor and report on market manipulation."
But the price gouging bill becoming law could lead to "the situation in the 1970s with gas lines" when the administration of Jimmy Carter attempted to combat "rampant inflation" with gas price controls, Taxpayers Protection Alliance Executive Director Patrick Hedger told Just the News.
"It is a thinly veiled attempt to institute price controls," said Hedger. "This is a bill that the Democrats, some of the most progressive Democrats, have pushed to essentially give the president and some regulatory agencies authority to cap gasoline prices.

"But that is the fastest way for us to repeat the 1970s because as expensive as gas is now, it's available, right? We don't have shortages of gasoline. The way to create a shortage is by putting a price control in place that encourages people to overconsume and discourages production."
Inflation has hit a 40-year high under the Biden administration. Gas prices are climbing toward a national average of $5 per gallon.
"It's just history repeating itself in such an unfortunate kind of shameless way," Hedger said in an interview. "No economist worth their weight and salt will tell you that [a price cap] is a good idea. It's a pure distraction from the fact that the Biden administration has been canceling oil and gas leases, has been antagonizing the industry since day one with canceling the Keystone XL pipeline, and that Washington has been printing and spending money with reckless abandon that's inflating the currency."
Just the News reached out to the American Petroleum Institute to find out if they support the legislation.
"This ill-advised and misguided legislation sets a dangerous precedent without meaningfully addressing the root cause of rising energy prices,".

Well, let's just say that based on past performances, we can reasonably expect that everything that Joe Biddum will do this year will fly back to blow up in America's faces again big time. If Joe really wanted to help, he'd just go home to Delaware for the next three years and do NOTHING.

You really need a refresher course in how things work.

Then Trump had no say in the spread of Covid 19 and the path of Floridian hurricanes.

It was just pure coincidence that the day Biden was elected after saying he would put an end to fossil fuels then on his opening day killed all US oil pipeline and exploration projects as mere coincidence that the oil industry started going south!

I couldn't give a rat's patooty what YOU think Biden is. He has no say or control over the price of gasoline at the pump. But you members of Alt-Right Nation just keep hoping you can find something that sticks before November. Hint...that sure as fire red wave in November?...doesn't look as sure as it did a month ago.

Of course he didn't. Trump wasn't responsible for the virus making it here, or the spread of it once it got here. That was going to happen one way or the other. What he was responsible for and what he failed miserably at...was the RESPONSE to the virus. So bad, and so non-caring, that the voters showed him the door. And I'm sorry, Sharpiegate was probably one of the lowest points in his Presidency...but it was funny nontheless.

Nothing that Biden discontinued in the oil/gas exploration area had ANYTHING do with the supply issues and prices you are seeing now. For that, you'll have to go see the oil/gas C level people. They'll have a good answer for you.

 

[toobfreak]

I couldn't give a rat's patooty

Sure you can, Jack, just lift up any floorboard in your kitchen.

He has no say or control over the price of gasoline

Then why has he initiated or endorsed several projects to cut gas taxes and to blame station owners for alleged nonexistent price gouging? Why is he going to Venezuela offering to suck cock in order to get cheap gas from a tyrant rather than let Americans produce it? Joe Bedpan is a hugely destabilizing force on the petroleum industry as, like his master Obumma who declared war on coal, Diaper Joe declared war on oil.

But you members of Alt-Right Nation just keep hoping you can find something that sticks before November.

Hoping? We have so much that's gonna stick that by Fall, you will be tarred and feathered head to toe.

...that sure as fire red wave in November?...doesn't look as sure as it did a month ago.

Yep. It is looking better and better by the day. You and Joe just keep going as you have been!

Something that "sticks"? Seriously?
Rampant inflation that's costing the average American family $5,000 plus this year? A border crisis that's out of control and about to get much worse when Doofus stops 42? An epidemic of overdoses because of the drugs he's letting flow across our border with all of the illegals? Violent crime spiking in cities all across the country? The totally botched withdrawal from Afghanistan? The Hunter Biden influence peddling debacle?
Face it, Jack...Joe Biden is Velcro these days! EVERYTHING sticks to him!

We've been importing oil from Venezuela for 80 years.

And it's far dirtier and harder to refine than Texas and Alaska crude, which lays bare the phoniness of the alleged concern you moonbats claim to have for the environment.

The really sad thing is that even when a policy or action of his proves bad, turns out disastrous or highly unpopular, he STILL WON'T ADMIT IT NOR CHANGE DIRECTION IN THE SLIGHTEST! Which proves some combination of up to three things:

1. The man is a total idiot.
2. The man is a hopelessly deluded partisan optimist.
3. Joe INTENDED these things to hurt the country.

 

[toobfreak]

Trump wasn't responsible for the virus making it here, or the spread of it once it got here. That was going to happen one way or the other.

Funny how you realize that now but two years ago during the election, it was ALL his fault!

What he was responsible for and what he failed miserably at...was the RESPONSE to the virus. So bad, and so non-caring, that the voters showed him the door.

I always said that Trump SHOULD have given a couple fireside chats to the nation about Covid over the summer of 2020, but Trump's response was one of freedom letting the individual decide on their own risk aversion and course of action, which would have saved our economy and supply chains from what we have now! But I know how much freedom upsets you!

And I'm sorry, Sharpiegate was probably one of the lowest points in his Presidency...but it was funny nontheless.

Wish we could say an inadvertent mark on a map showing where a hurricane might go if it didn't change direction was Joe's lowest point too but Joe has him beat by about ten floors and a dozen light-years.

Nothing that Biden discontinued in the oil/gas exploration area had ANYTHING do with the supply issues and prices you are seeing now.

Nope! It is all just a coincidence that Joe declared war on oil, shut down the XL pipeline, cancelled oil leases and is a huge advocate for an oil-free all-EV world that gas prices starting around $1.70/gallon started climbing the day he was elected and haven't stopped since to now the highest in history!

Tell me another fairytale, daddy!

Barack Obama was perfectly candid about Joe Biden, Toobfreak! He told us all not to underestimate Joe's ability to fuck things up. It's what you get though when you elect the dumbest man in the Senate for the past forty years. No real surprise there...

Do a little research into oil production in the United States and then get back to me. You're spouting alt-right talking points. Your forgiveness of Sharpiegate tells me everything I need to know about you.

 

[toobfreak]

Do a little research into oil production in the United States and then get back to me.

No need. An old boss of mine used to own his own fracking business in the oil industry.

Your forgiveness of Sharpiegate tells me everything I need to know about you.

Yes. Sharpiegate as you call it did not:

• Leave 14,000 Americans stranded in Afghanistan.
• Declare half the nation (the opposing party) a bunch of domestic terrorists needing a ministry of oppression to silence.
• Take us into a war with Russia and soon to be a bigger conflict with China.
• Raise our debt by trillions of dollars.
• Invade our country with MILLIONS of illegal 3rd worlders, some of which are known terrorists.
• Give us the highest inflation in 40 years.
• Kill our supply lines leaving babies with no food.

The fact that you even bring up that hurricane map all these years later which Trump has nothing to even do with tells me everything I needed to know about you, but already knew anyway.

 

[Oldestyle]

If the whole "Sharpie" thing is what bothers him about Trump then that's sad!
