We Seem to Have a Huge Case of Right Wing Amnesia here at USMB

Who should get the blame for not increasing production as fuel prices sky-rocket?

After suffering heavy losses last year, it's no wonder that the industry wants to bank some bucks.

May 8, 2020,

With thousands of oil wells choking back or completely shutting off production, companies already are looking ahead to what may prove to be an even bigger challenge: turning wells back on.

U.S. and Canadian oil producers are curbing as much as 4.5 million barrels of daily supplies, according to Plains All American Pipeline LP. In the U.S. alone, drillers have announced plans to halt more than 600,000 barrels of daily output this month and next, said Rystad Energy AS. Old-style, conventional wells were the first to go down and the closures are expanding to some of the horizontal gushers that represent shale drillers’ prize assets.

Although shutting down a well can be a relatively simple -- and even remote-controlled -- process, industry executives and their engineering teams aren’t altogether sure how smoothly an idle well can be restarted.

“When you shut in wells, especially for a long period of time, you have a lot of surprises,” Clay Bretches, an executive vice president at Apache Corp., said during a conference call with analysts on Thursday. “Some of them are good and some of them are bad.”

Best take that up with the source I excerpted and linked.
I'm not sure anyone said the pandemic isn't part of the effects.

Don't have too. The year over year formula is the one they all use and they all come up with the same figure. If you don't understand how the price drops between 2019 and 2020 due to the pandemic effects the current rate, that's on you.
 
Facts are not excuses. You guys blamed Obama or Hillary for every trump fuck up for 4 years. So you know what you can do with your comment.
President Obama, VP Biden, and Barry's criminal administration has been proven definitively to have colluded with Russian Inetl Service members, a foreign ex-spy, and committed violations of the Constitution and US laws in a failed attempt to overthrow the US govt through illegally and treasonously removing the newly elected President from office.

Democrats spent 4 years undermining the President and trying to remove him from office.

Pelosi became the 1st House Speaker in US history to attempt Impeachment of a Preside3nt TWICE and the 1st to attempt to Impeach the same President Twice. Pelosi led 2 failed Impeachments based on zero crime, zero evidence, and zero witnesses.
- During both failed Impeachments Democrats were caught illegally attempting to manufacture and submit fake criminal evidence.

I could go through the laundry lists of historic 1sts / successes Trump accomplished, byt snowflakes already know them.

During those 4 years in office Democrats accomplished nothing because they spent all their time attempting to overthrow Trump.

Now that Democrats control the WH and Congress they have STILL accomplished NOTHING because despite their majority control of Congress and Leftist Extremists have taken over the party, 2 Moderate Democrats - not Republicans - have prevented them from doing anything.


Now the Leftist Extremists have what they want - they control the WH, House, and Senate, and everything they have touched has turned to shit.

WHY? Because the same failed policies they use to completely destroy cities all over the US are being applied to the country now. It is also the reason why Biden's poll numbers and going down faster than Kamala Harris on someone who can help her career!
 
No president miraculously turns around a bad situation in less than a month, and no president makes things great in 2-3 months. First off, the new president is dealing with the buget from the president before him. It took Obama 2-3 years to start seeing improvements. The Obama created economy was handed to trump and people who didn't want to give Obama credit for various reasons were quick to give trump credit for a miraculous turnaround he had nothing to do with.

In trumps last 2 years the economy was going down and we suffered from a manufacturing recession. This and the economic problems caused by COVID is what trump gave to Biden. Among other things.

‘A real mess’: Trump is leaving behind crises and undermining Biden before he takes office

When President-elect Joe Biden is sworn into office on Jan. 20, the list of crises he will face includes a massive cyber intrusion, a still-raging global pandemic, a slowing economic recovery and a lingering reckoning over the nation’s racial tensions.

President Trump is not making his job any easier and, in several ways, appears to be actively making it harder — going to extraordinary lengths to disrupt and undermine the traditional transition from one administration to another despite the nation’s many crises.

Trump has sought to play down or even deny the still-expanding cybersecurity breach that many experts blame on Russia, even as its impact has spread to a growing number of federal agencies. The delayed and turbulent transition process could complicate the Biden administration’s ability to address the challenge and shore up the nation’s cyberdefenses.


Remember those cyberattacks the trump faithful blamed on Biden? Remember when the cult members declared during their meeting how Putin ran Biden because he was "weak"? We haven't had a cyber attack for a while.

Trump left multiple messes for Biden to clean up

There are some who worship the ground Donald Trump walks on and support everything he has done, regardless of how ghastly. President Joe Biden, at the time of his inauguration, inherited a total mess.

When Trump took office on January 20, 2017, the national debt was $19.9 trillion, and when he left four years later, it was $27 trillion — and at the highest percentage of GDP since the end of World War II. And, Biden inherited the worst disease outbreak in over a century.

Economic Mess Left Behind For Joe Biden

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The extraordinary economic mess Donald Trump is leaving behind for President-elect Joe Biden continues to grow as another 742,000 workers filed for unemployment last week. More than 6.3 million Americans remain without work as outgoing President Trump has effectively given up on containing the pandemic which has now claimed the lives of over 250,000 Americans. Yet Trump, his administration, and his Senate allies would rather deny reality and refuse aid to families in need. They are choosing to undermine national security and public health by withholding critical transition resources from the incoming Biden administration, and choosing to push economic recovery further off by holding up urgently needed relief for struggling workers, states, small businesses — the kind of real relief the U.S. House passed months ago.



We had no mess when trump left. The installed invalid is making a mess of such epic proportions that even jimmeh would be ashamed of.
 
Oil companies?

OPEC?

Fed Govt.

There was no such proven collusion. 2 Moderate democrats would not be a problem if 10 republicans voted yes. But republicans have been told to not vote for anything. Trump fucked up this countriy and that's the problem. This farce you raise about cities is a joke.

We had 600,000 dead from a pandemic that was out of control due to a failure of presidential leadership. And that's just one mess. The OP shows what trump left, lying doesn't change anything.
 
Shit, even the Kenyan knew to keep oil companies in check....he released 30 million barrels from our emergency reserves in 2011.
The Almost Dead Fake President owns this shit and you know it.
There was no kenyan. The fact you make that comment shows you don't know wtf you're talking about.

Nope, orange man and the installed invalid were both pushing the snake juice......that same juice that couldn't come quickly enough for you.
 
President Obama, VP Biden, and Barry's criminal administration has been proven definitively to have colluded with Russian

Hahahahaha sure sure, that's what Durham proved right?

We know how the Trumpybear campaign colluded with the Russians and took advantage of the fruits of a poisoned tree. Now after 2020, they have poisoned American Democracy. If Neo-GOP legislatures invalidate democrat strongholds in the coming elections to throw the elections, neither party will trust in the elections to such an extent that non-violent transfers of power might be a thing of the past.

That will be the Neo-GOP legacy.

Better read BHO's first two books ~ I did.
His biological father came here from Kenya on subsidy to attend college.
BHO mentions going to Kenya to visit his father's relatives/family.

Like most Lefty~Libtards, you either don't know WTF you are talking about or are making it up=lying.
