To all you pro oil folks out there.

Look at this moron trying to blame Trump for his Vegetable Messiah’s $6 gas.

It was an answer to a specific question about the pipeline. Turns out the Neo-GOP leader couldn't negotiate his way out of a wet paper bag. Without legislation, his EO was doomed to be revoked by the next Democrat.

Why don't you?

Why do you hate corporations making money?

wow, a demofk standing for the rich corporations now.

 

[jc456]

If you dont know then you don't know, is all. Tough shit if you're stupid and lost. You never answer any questions yourself, except with more stupid questions, so it's clear you don't know anything at all about the business.

so since you can't must mean you don't know.

 

[Oldestyle]

Of course it was going up as the economy came back. But Ukraine KEPT it rising to these heights

So basically what you're admitting is that the price of gas was being driven up by the Biden Administration BEFORE Russia invaded Ukraine and that conflict made it go higher? Gee, Lesh...you on the left got exactly what you were looking for...it just happened quicker than you thought it would?

 

[DudleySmith]

If you want to look at the REAL impact of a Biden Presidency, Dudley...look at the price of gas from the day that he won the election! I believe it's up approximately 140%. The fossil fuel industry knew what was coming and oil futures reacted accordingly.

You mean they knew he was weak and wouldn't do anything if they got together and gouged the public? I already knew that; you seem to think it matters who is in the White House when they decide to hold off on new drilling and hand out dividends, keeping prices high.

 

[DudleySmith]

so since you can't must mean you don't know.

Since you can't find it and refute what I said, that means you're just a dumbass troll trying to Be Somebody.

Accounting and deducting business expenses are subsidies? LOL!

The federal government provides numerous subsidies, both direct and indirect, to the fossil fuel industry. Special provisions in the U.S. tax code designed to specifically support and reward domestic fossil fuel‐related production are direct subsidies. Other provisions in the tax code aimed at businesses in general create indirect subsidies that are not exclusive to the fossil fuels industry. In certain cases, quantifying these subsidies is fairly simple. In the case of indirect subsidies, establishing an amount associated with these subsidies is more challenging. While not covered in this fact sheet, another source of federal aid to the fossil fuel industry is the discounted cost of leasing federal lands for fossil fuel extraction.

Can't come up with anything yet, I see.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Republicans gave oil companies all those loopholes & tax subsidies.

Letting them write off typical business expenses......outrageous!!!

Having the govt. force people to sell you their land

Which land? For what purpose?

They "held off" on drilling because the Biden Administration stone walled the approval process for new wells, Dudley! That wasn't something that Big Oil did on their own...they were simply dealing with a new administration that they KNEW hated the fossil fuel industry! THAT is the reason that oil futures spiked.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

40 mllion barrels.

At $200 a barrel? Thanks!

 

[Leo123]

Rubbish. There is nothing stopping them from drilling on private leases, except they can't rip off private owners like they can with govt. leases at $2.00 an acre. Drilling counts are up over the last two years, due to indies on private land leases like in the Permian. Do you think it just takes a couple of minutes to fill demand n stuff?

Most of the oil is on government land.......in the U.S. that means We The People....Not the bureaucracy and certainly not Biden.

They're just going to ignore the facts and keep on with their BDS; they have in every other thread on this, no matter what facts you post; just mock them and laugh at them; anything serious is just a waste of time. He isn't here to debate, he's here to spread propaganda for his crappy Party and ideology is all. Anybody can find that stuff.

Show me the bill of sale when you get it.

No it isn't, not even close.

 

[KissMy]

It's outrageous that Oil companies are allowed to transfer all their unprofitable wells to a shell company that goes bankrupt so they don't have to pay to plug gas leaks, plug the well or clean up their mess. That way tax payers have to hire them to do their own cleanup.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

If you dont know then you don't know, is all.

If you think our refineries only refine 5% of the Canadian oil delivered to Texas, prove it.

Or run away....again.
