Exactly! - Crude Oil & Gasoline prices were 500% lower when Clinton was president & we imported most of our oil. Then Bush nearly destroyed the USA, US dollar, Jobs & Exploded Deficit spending. Bush drove oil up from $10/barrel to $147/barrel while we were fracing & producing oil like crazy. The value of the US dollar determines the price far more than US Oil Production does.
When Bush left office it cost US oil producers over $72/barrel & rising to increase Bakken oil production. Now under Obama it is only costing $58/barrel & falling. Before Bush destroyed this country, oil was only $10/barrel.
You and ed are dumb and dumber. First, you know nothing about economics. Second, what was Obama's policy that you feel led to lower energy prices. Was it when he kept saying prices need to go up because of global warming to cut usage? Is that how he lowered them?
You are so clueless that Republicans used Machiavellianism to play you like a Fiddle.
That wasn't the question, shit for brains. The question was, what was Obama's policy that lead to lower gas prices? He's blocked domestic exploration repeatedly. His ass was in the right chair at the right time. And he's taking credit for something he not only had nothing to do with but was actually fighting. That's what he did. Explain what he did that would lead to lower gas prices.
Yes your stupidity is the answer to why you have to keep re-asking previously answered stupid questions.
- Obama's Executive Order #13423 Increased Government Fleet Fuel Efficiency, Reduced Energy Consumption, Lowering Demand & Prices.
- Obama's Memorandum to EPA approves Request for Emissions Standards Waiver increasing efficiency, economics & reducing prices.
- Obama's Memorandum to NHTSA enforced EISA increasing CAFE efficiency, reducing oil, fuel & gasoline demand & prices by over 25%.
- Obama's Executive Order #13604 Fast Tracked the key section of the Keystone, Flanagan South & Seaway Pipelines crushing the Brent to WTI Crude Oil price spread by $30/barrel saving you big-time at the gas pump.
- Obama's continued support of Ethanol & alternative transport suppresses the Gasoline prices at the pump 25%.
- Obama's Executive Order #13490 Lifted the Oil Export Ban to free oil transport to most economical & efficient refinery capacity & encourage more crude oil, fuel & gasoline production.
- Obama stopped Bush's wasteful No-Bid Government Contract Spending, Too Big to Fail Bailouts, Reduced Deficit Spending Boosting the value of the US Dollars that sets the price of Crude Oil thus lowering the price of Oil.
- Obama's EPA push for Environmental Drilling Fracing Eco-Pad reduced US oil production cost by over $15/barrel.
These are just a few of Obama's policies that have lowered Gasoline Prices at the pump. I am busy with little time to keep reposing facts just because you think it's cute to keep re-asking the same question saying someone can't answer it.
LOL, the kool-aid chugger strikes again. Obama said he wanted gas prices to go up because of green house gasses to drive usage down. He's blocked production on federal land, off shores and in Alaska while fighting fracking and blocking the Keystone pipeline. And you think he's worked to lower oil prices? LOL, glug, glug, glug is all you have to say.
