One major cause to today's gas prices being 45% higher under Biden..."I guarantee We Are Going To Get Rid of Fossil Fuels”


Oil exec's have constantly said they are reluctant to produce more oil after being burned by over production in the past.
Which then would give them even more reason to hike prices when the dummy tells the world he guarantees to get rid of fossil fuels!
What a dumb ass statement that gives even more reasons for oil companies to stop production and raise prices!
But they didn't stop production ONLY ON FEDERAL Lands due to Biden's EOs canceling drilling leases.

Biden blocks oil drilling on 10M acres in Alaska, including leases Trump sold​

 
Filling up the car with a gallon of fuel for the week's commute is more possible and viable than hauling several hundreds of pounds of batteries for today's commute.

More possible?

My Tesla commuter sure seems as possible as it gets.
 
As I have shown time and time and time again, countries like Russia, Saudi Arabia, and Venezuela have been reducing their output to levels lower than during the pandemic in order to cause prices to rise.

In addition, our domestic oil companies are price gouging and reporting record profits.

Which has NOTHING to do with Biden.

They want you to blame Biden, though, for obvious reasons.

Don't be such a sucker. Your stupidity is costing you money.
The left claims big business is price gouging. Why didn't they do that when Trump was president? Or Obama? Or....
 


The above was said in September 06, 2019,
Now According to Statista Consumer Insights,

73 percent of American commuters use their own car to move between home and work,
making it by far the most popular mode of transportation.

There are 8 million truckers on the road everyday.
T
hat includes semis and trailers/ 18 wheelers, fuel trucks/ tanker trucks, and transportation box trucks that move food, beverages and smaller loads, plus equipment trucks, flatbeds, and more. But the majority are 18 wheelers semis with trailers.
For those of you with an attention span longer than the average American of 8.5 seconds the above information was to show you the affect of gas prices on just two major aspects of a "fossil fuel commodity" that Biden wants to destroy.
CONCLUSION.. Why the average American directly saw 44% cost in their daily driving and at least 44% indirectly for the goods and services delivered by trucks for ALL Americans.
44% increase primarily due to Biden's "guarantee"!
As a result of Biden's stupid guarantee.. the CEO of Chevron, Mike Wirth's response:
"You’re looking at committing capital 10 years out, that will need decades to offer a return for shareholders, in a policy environment where governments around the world are saying, ‘We don’t want these products.’”

US May Never Build New Refinery Even With Surging Gas Prices, Chevron CEO Says
Green policy push means billion-dollar investments may be stranded in coming decades

Conclusion: Harris supports 100% destruction of fossil fuels.
GAS prices will continue to climb even higher!

Forget politics, peak oil will destroy our way of life. 15-minute cities are being pushed because they know the score...we are running out of crude. (Easy to get crude.) No one knows when the peak will be, but things will eventually peak. Sure, there will always be oil in the ground. But the Ponzi scheme bursts once it takes 1.1 barrels of crude to extract 1 barrel of crude oil. Crude oil is what built us. We cannot get rid of petrochemical use of crude oil, even if we went 100% eCars.

There is no fungible replacement for crude oil. eCars would have no tires, no seat cushions or seat covers, no grease for the wheel bearings, no asphalt roads to run on, no dashboards or seat belts, no solar panels and on and on. Crude oil built our world. 90% to 95% die off with no crude oil. To make matters worse, ALL the eCar batteries have to be remade every 9 to 11 years or so. Batteries are not permanent. We are cracking / fracking rocks to find gas and sifting crude from tar sand. The writing is on the proverbial wall, bub. America only worked when it worked. America is based on endless growth and consumption in a finite world...aka a Ponzi scheme.

I'm speaking of commercial vehicles needing to be the first to change instead of retail vehicles

Retail will follow due to evolution of commercial use vehicles. Hybrids can make things better although not perfect immediately. Much smaller battery needs, much less weight, no road overweight allowances.

Besides we have more pressing issues than global warming which has not happened in the past 50 years. We have global population declining rapidly as more of a pressing issue than environmental issues which have little evidence of being substantial.

No one is proposing full replacement of oil products silly.

Here you go:

Chevron raises buybacks and says exposure to Russia is limited


Major oil companies are responding to a jump in profits this year from higher oil and gas prices by giving back more cash to shareholders, many of whom have been frustrated by years of low returns.

So far,
most shale operators have signaled that they plan to put capital returns above output growth, even as U.S. oil prices crossed $100 per barrel earlier this week.


See that? Do you see that?

Oil companies were deliberately slow-walking production back to normal levels, trying to maximize profits at your expense.

Peak oil is ALWAYS at a minimum of 50 years away from the moment any draconian law is put forth.

And we have far too many uses for petroleum products to ever get away from them completely.

Petroleum products are available and used because they are inexpensive to use.

We need cheap oil....not anything else. Sure we can replace petroleum products with other products but at very high prices.

The point is to phase out BURNING fossil fuels in the long term, not to stop using all petrol products, which are used to make everything from lubricants to plastics.

Evidently the Trumpsters think that global oil prices are profoundly effected by campaign promises.

Gosh, and all along we thought it was a complex web of varying global currents, from currencies to distribution to demand to macroeconomic forces!

:rolleyes:

Then why didn't they do it under Trump? Under Obama?

I also believe that using yellow coal is extremely viable from what George W Bush called "clean coal technology"....it really isn't what the name suggests but we still get the gypsum for drywall after the hydrocarbon products are removed....plus no aerosolized mercury to pollute the environment.

That technology has been around since WW2. We don't use it and it can be made very efficient and effective. Just a matter of "want to".

CO² emissions? I'm not sure that those numbers have changed either from burning petroleum.

Internal self reliance on energy from an international viewpoint is only logical. Lots of people can prey upon a single point of failure.
 
ALL True no one every every disputed that!
What you are NOT showing though are these numbers:

In 2022, total petroleum exports were about 9.52 million barrels per day (b/d)
and total petroleum imports were about 8.33 million b/d,
So actually the USA IMPORTED 8.33 million barrels/day..
But more importantly... it is the PRICE we pay even though we have more production.
Why? ONE major reason is this Biden statement: "I guarantee We Are Going To Get Rid of Fossil Fuels”
Now if you are a CEO of an oil company like this:
Mike Wirth's said..."You’re looking at committing capital 10 years out, that will need decades to offer a return for shareholders, in a policy environment where governments around the world are saying, ‘We don’t want these products.’”
So even though the USA is producing more oil, when oil executives are planning for their future...not 10 days, 10 months but 10 years... when they hear the President of the USA guarantee to put them out of business... wow what a reason to raise prices 44% in 4 years! Again Trump "drill, baby, drill" attitude versus Biden "rid fossil fuels".
Why is that so hard to comprehend, i.e. which person wants to see oil companies succeed and which wants them destroyed?

By your own link we are importing far less now than we did under Trump....so how is this the fault of some words Biden said that most people laughed at, including the oil companies?
