Yeah, you navigate in moron land.

How Europe is trying to wean itself off its $1 billion a day Russia energy habit​

The posture of the EU’s biggest economy has changed rapidly during the crisis, with Germany committing 200 billion euros to bring forward its goal of 100% renewable energy by more than a decade.

How Europe is trying to wean itself off its $1 billion a day Russia energy habit

Policy is changing in real time as political leaders in capitals across Europe adopt new positions by the day and missiles land on Kyiv.

Lol...but Moronland winning.
Western governments not giving a shit about renewables because the leaders there don't want to wake up one morning tied to the top of a cold lamp post. That's how it works.

The Oz stuff not being taken seriously by those who make energy policy

Actually, nope. And I posted a link for you to read. But then, you are a moron, right?

 

[jc456]

That isn't going to tell me what the price of gas was in March of 2020. (Perhaps you don't know how gas station signs work?)



Well, at least I know that you can't tell the trend of gas prices 2 years ago from looking at today's price.

But I'm sure in your world that's exactly how you gather data.

I knew you couldn't support your own claim. I just didn't expect you didn't even understand your own claim! That's sad.

Sure I do, it’s now obvious you don’t.

Your post highlighted the term "weaning". The moron wants to know if the posted understands the meaning of "weaning" as it applies to energy policy?

Indeed...the morons know it's all about the geopolitical landscape. Always has been...always will be.

Was that so hard? Supporting your claim? Why do people have to beg you guys to support your claims?

Note how it went up when Trump took office too!

Wow, those years under GW Bush were also pretty high!

Yep, but price’s jumped before Russia Russia scam, just as I said! Internet facts

When did they say coal was dead considering it has never died?

Environmentalists thought they killed coal

but they were wrong

I hate to be the one to teach a "conservative" how economics works but I'll give it a go:

When Biden took office the US was slowly and tentatively starting to open up again. After 2 years of MUCH LESS travel gas demand went down and prices were low. Upon re-opening as more people got on the road demand increased as did price.

This is, presumably, the reason you LIKE the free market. It's so unfortunate when the free market doesn't make you happy isn't it?

Note in your graph how the slope changed DRAMATICALLY right about the time that Russia invaded Ukraine. That's because Russia is a large exporter of oil and gas (the US doesn't use that much Russian oil, but we are part of the GLOBAL MARKET which DOES and hence the price goes up).

It's charming that you have a cartoon view of how economics works, but maybe, just maybe, if you actually listened to economists this wouldn't all be such a mystery to you.

There may be no shortage of people willing to take that risk, but the coal companies DECADES ago found the joy of "automation" and reduced the number of people needed to mine coal. The "war on coal jobs" actually came out of the Coal CEO offices. And those jobs are never coming back. Ever.

but what I said was fact. Now you're trying to cover it up. Naw, you're just making excuses now.

Huh...go figure. The numbers say that coal is, indeed, dying.

but what I said was fact.

In context it was effectively meaningless, though.

Now you're trying to cover it up.

No, covering it up would be trying to hide WHY gas prices fluctuate in service to some political point.

Naw, you're just making excuses now.

I wish you luck as a "conservative" because you're gonna need it. If you don't know how the economy works you will be guided by people without your best interest in mind. Good luck. Remember: don't open the e-mails from the Nigerian Prince offering you millions of dollars and DEFINITELY don't buy any bridges.

making excuses to cover up for bad policy makes you look small.

So sorry you don't like the free market economy. Perhaps you could find someplace that still practices Marxism? Good luck.
