The Inflation Effect

[JGalt]

And proposed and driven by a democrat congress.

Same thing with the so called "Bush Recession." It was congressional Democrats who badgered GW into signing legislation that caused the Housing and Mortgage Crisis. That's one of the reasons so many Republicans detest the Bushes. All he did was "go along to get along" with free-spending Democrats.

 

[Concerned American]

That's complete Bullshit.
What policy was put in place under trump that actually lowered gas prices?

1). Was it his COVID response? That was a good one. Failed Response.
2). Was it more drilling for oil than today......Yea, that never happened.
3). Was it the Keystone XL Pipeline.....Which was not even built....You Actually believe that the Non_Built Keystone XL pipeline had any affect on gas prices?

C'mon Genius......name that trump policy that lowered gas prices.

Not needed. The fact of the matter is fuel was $2.25 before the Biden EO's that sent fuel to the highest point in the history of the earth and they still remain higher than at any point during the Trump presidency. Now STFU. BTW, I met possibly one of your moronic students on Whidbey Isl. this week--couldn't count back change correctly. You and your ilk are such successes.

 

[Concerned American]

Stop with the "cult" bullshit. You yourself are in the cult "neither candidate", which is counter-productive and has never solved anything. I will never give Joe Biden credit for anything. His economic, energy, domestic, and foreign policies wreaked havoc on this country, the likes of which we haven't even seen the full ramifications.

There is no way you're ever going to convince anyone that we're better off now than we were in 2019.

Bitching Buzzard will never change. Even his avatar has blinders on. His is still the moronic Gulping Gator.

The gas prices were lower because Trump removed many government regulations off the backs of the energy companies. As for the COVID response, Trump did not fail. His advisors like Fauci failed. The medical profession failed. Nobody knew how to deal with a global pandemic like that one.

Now if you don't like Trump's COVID response, you're free to send back those COVID relief funds you got and give back all those jabs you took.

So you actually think middle schoolers stay in the town that they were babysat in? LMAO. Try again moron. Fuel prices didn't increase under Trump, idiot. They increased immediately following Biden's signing of 17 EOs on Jan. 21, 2021, at least one of which was a direct attack on the fossil fuel industry. You gonna be mad on Nov. 7 bro.

 

[Winco]

The gas prices were lower because Trump removed many government regulations off the backs of the energy companies.

And removing those regulations did what?

1). Increased Oil Co. Profits........Not a help to you and didn't LOWER gas prices.
2). Allowed for more Oil Production......NOPE, another LIE.

So what was it genius?

Just imagine if Oil Companies CARED and lowered prices, which they didn't.
RECORD PROFITS......that's what we got.

 

[Concerned American]

Not a help to you and didn't LOWER gas prices.

Linkie?

What was that?
Can you link to it?
What was the attack that led to less oil production? .......oh that's correct, that NEVER happened.

Oh and BTW, I'm an excellent math teacher that increased my students math scores.
I could teach an old fuck like you a few things.......LOLLLOLLLL.......take that NAP. SOON.

Ask you you shall receive. These are all things that President Trump did not do...

#1 and 2: Adopting new EPA oil and gas rules​

In November 2021, the Environmental Protection Agency announced new regulations governing methane emissions from oil and gas production, transmission, storage, and distribution that would cost more than $1 billion a year.


Last spring, Biden signed a resolution that overturned Trump administration reforms to EPA oil and gas rules. This resolution will worsen energy poverty, reestablish burdensome regulations, and have a disproportionate impact on small businesses.

#3, #4, #5, #6, #7, and #8: Restricting or impeding energy projects​

One of Biden’s first actions after taking office was to halt new oil and gas leases on federal lands and waters, the Biden administration has delayed decisions on these leases — a move that results in higher energy costs for the most vulnerable consumers.


The administration canceled the Keystone XL pipeline and suspended oil and gas leases in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and New Mexico (despite opposition from the Navajo Nation). It also resurrected the “Waters of the United States” rule, which would increase barriers to energy projects.


The White House is pursuing new standards for particulate matter and ozone, likely tightening them to unachievable levels for much of the country and creating new barriers for energy project permits.


The president also has rescinded Endangered Species Act reforms, a move that will increase red tape and allow litigation to slow down energy projects.

#9: Rejoining the Paris agreement​

In April 2021, without the consent of Congress, Biden rejoined the Paris agreement, which will result in onerous new regulations that could raise energy costs.

#10: Appointing unaccountable energy regulators​

The president has created several bodies within the White House charged with creating new policies to regulate energy. The people who run these councils are unelected and do not need Senate confirmation, but they have been given broad powers to come up with new executive actions — which do not need consent from Congress — to regulate U.S. energy production.

#11: Forcing states to restrict driving​

One section of the recently enacted Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, supported by the White House, would require every U.S. state to develop state carbon-reduction plans that must be approved by the U.S. Department of Transportation as well as be updated every four years.


These plans are aimed at reducing driving all over the country — even for people in rural areas where public transportation is limited, and driving is the only option.

#12, #13, and #14: Raising the prices of cars and trucks​

The Biden administration has failed to take adequate action on annual requirements and small refinery waivers for the Renewable Fuel Standard and in providing regulatory relief from this biofuel mandate due to economic hardship. His EPA has finalized a new rule regulating greenhouse gas emissions from cars and trucks. That single regulation could raise the average vehicle price by $1,000.

#15: Instituting a new policy on carbon taxes in organized wholesale electricity markets​

This carbon pricing policy statement, issued by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission in April 2021, is a blanket endorsement of top-down policies that have been demonstrated to be costly, ineffective, regressive, and consistently rejected by the American people.

#16: Raising the prices of common household necessities​

The EPA has issued a final rule to phase out a common, inexpensive refrigerant. This policy is a de facto tax on air conditioning and refrigeration.

#17: Stifling energy innovation​

In May 2021, Biden issued a sweeping executive order that mobilized federal agencies, including the Securities and Exchange Commission, to enforce mandates on businesses, insurers, retirement funds, and suppliers. These policies will stifle innovation critical to improving the environment and will increase costs for a wide variety of businesses.

#18: Altering regulatory cost analyses​

The Biden administration has changed key inputs for economic and regulatory analysis, including raising the “social cost” of greenhouse gases. These policies will mask the true consumer cost of regulatory actions.

#19 and #20: Imposing new costs on power generation​

The administration attempted to resurrect an aggressive version of the Clean Power Plan for power sector mandates called the Clean Electricity Standard.


In the Fall 2021 Unified Agenda, the EPA stated their intention to propose what can be considered the Clean Power Plan 2.0. This policy would impose burdensome regulations but would have little or no environmental benefit.


The EPA also has mandated that even facilities with reduced emissions must remain on the list of “major” sources, subjecting these facilities to permitting burdens and higher costs.

#21: Impeding Americans exports​

The administration is considering potential restrictions on the export of crude oil that would increase, not decrease, energy prices.

#22 and #23: Raising taxes​

More than one-quarter of the administration-backed Build Back Better agenda is pulled directly from the “Green New Deal.” The Build Back Better agenda includes new taxes on natural gas and home heating. It also includes new taxes on petroleum and manufacturing.


#24: Picking energy winners and losers


The Build Back Better agenda would spend taxpayer dollars to push utilities to adopt more costly, politically preferred forms of energy, a move that would reduce Americans’ energy choices.

#25: Fueling the fire for future regulation​

Finally, through the Civilian Climate Corps, Build Back Better would fund the salaries of tens of thousands of anti-energy activists who would perpetuate high energy costs by demanding new and costly federal regulations and legislation.


Unlike releasing oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, these 25 steps are not just a “drop in the ocean.”


They have made, and will continue to make, a significant impact on Americans’ ability to afford the energy products that fuel their lives and livelihoods.

There is no way you're ever going to convince anyone that we're better off now than we were in 2019.

I cannot speak to your situation, but I am far better off now than I was in 2019.

It is also telling that you pretend that 2020 did not happen

LMAO, Triggered again. You better calm down, son. You'll have a massive coronary and you won't live to see Trump move into the WH on Jan. 20, 2025. BTW, such language! Is that why we hear our young people talking like that?

You've been told time and again--Prices went up by record amounts due to Biden policies. Your alzheimer's patient and failed POTUS owns them. Your TDS notwithstanding.

True, and it's just as likely this unfortunate soul was homeschooled by you.

Supply and Demand.

Oil markets are composed of speculators who are betting on price moves, and hedgers who are limiting risk in the production or consumption of oil. The future cost of extracting and producing oil is also an important factor too, which was why the prices went so high under Biden. His unfriendliness to the energy sector made them extremely nervous about sinking money into ventures that could possibly have extreme governmental regulation heaped upon that at some time in the future.

 

[Winco]

You've been told time and again--Prices went up

Because of OPEC+.

You know, or not?
You pretend to be 'all knowing' how do you not know or acknowledge the agreement/deal affects of this OPEC+ deal?

I know, it doesn't fit your agenda, so you blame others, anyone but POS trump.
trump signed this OPEC+ deal.......you know the result.
You are just too cowardly to admit it.

 

[whitehall]

Inflation is like the frog in the boiling water. He doesn't notice it until it's too late. If the mainstream media can pretend that inflation isn't happening in order to get democrats elected maybe Americans won't notice it until the banks and newly armed IRS agents come knocking on their door.
