We Used to Be Energy Independent: What Happened?

[Fort Fun Indiana]

It's a mystery, wrapped in an enigma.

“When the Biden Administration took office, it unleashed a dangerous “Mandate and Moratorium” strategy, a green jihad of sorts against the U.S. energy sector. The strategy was simple– create supply constraints for domestic oil and gas producers by dismantling distribution systems, tightening regulations, and suspending leases and permits, therefore impacting future drilling activity. Co-conspirators like Black Rock’s, Larry Fink, then jumped in by urging institutional divestment from the oil and gas sector and wielding a pseudo-sophisticated set of investments standards known as environment, social and governance (ESG). The strategy was topped off with the complicity of social media and tech’s intolerance for a diversity of ideas, ensuring Americans couldn’t discuss the flawed energy policy, let alone dissent from it.”

We Used to Be Energy Independent: What Happened? | The Pipeline

While responding to reporters about Russia’s incursion into Ukraine two weeks ago, President Biden committed that his administration was using every tool at its disposal to protect American businesses and consumers from rising prices at the gas pump. “I will do everything in my power to limit...

What happened?
A paid liar wrote a blog meant for an audience of gullible morons.

And it found one. Then he started this thread.

Dumb ass Dems waged a war on oil that's what happened. Vote out every last Dem this Nov and never elect another.

 

[initforme]

So if the oil that flows thru keystone is ours then why would we ever let an ounce of it be shipped away when we need it?

Non-responder surprises no one by non-responding.

Yes, the party that wants to end use of fossil fuels for energy and has been in power for over a year now has nothing to do with policies designed to end our use of fossil fuels.....

Funny you didn't even mention the ANWR that Biden shut down. That would have supplied us with 11 billion barrels of oil. It's not all about the Keystone XL, Biden has crippled this country's energy sector in other ways too, Ways you're not even aware of.

In last-minute move, Trump administration shrinks ANWR oil lease sale by almost a third

The Bureau of Land Management announced the decision to shrink the available acres by about 30% on Friday evening, just three days before it began accepting sealed bids for drilling rights.

Allowing big oil to export oil from our shores needs to be halted.

Oil Nations, Prodded by Trump, Reach Deal to Slash Production (Published 2020)

The deal will reduce output by 9.7 million barrels a day. While significant, the cut falls far short of what is needed to bring oil production in line with demand.

still unclear your point. 30% is not shut down 100%. Maybe there were reasons why. We had 2 dollar gas prices at the pumps. Xiden said fk all that, we need 7 dollar gas prices and began the punishment of the american people. It's really quite fking simple. And for some sick reason so do you.

 

[Winco]

Maybe there were reasons why.

It says right there in the link.
trump wanted production to match consumption.
Why?
1) COVID caused the USA to use less oil products. You agree or not?
2) Is trumps deal still in affect today? And that's why production is still down. and not because biden cut production. It says trump demanded a cut in production.
Are you denying that?
3). Speculation, how long was the agreement, again, is that agreement still in affect? Did trump want production cut so he could claim energy independence?

OPEC and allies agree to historic 10 million barrel per day production cut

A historic production cut agreement between OPEC and its allies, known as OPEC+, hit a roadblock after Mexico refused to agree to its share.

American technology has failed to deliver 500hp from a 50 mpg engine.

 

[there4eyeM]

It is cheap and easy to have a 1 hp vehicle that gets around at 30 mph. or more.
I have one.

Why did xiden need to ask russia for oil?

Are you ignorant to the FACT that the USA imported oil from Russia, even while trump claimed energy independence?

Apparently you are unaware or just in denial.

That's when there was an oil glut, not a shortage.

 

[WEATHER53]

We succumbed to liberal shame based manipulation of feelings concerning “we have it too good”

 

[Winco]

Dem policies directly affected prices.

That's when there was an oil glut, not a shortage.

OPEC said in a statement that the initial 10 million barrels per day cut would last in May and June, before tapering to 8 million barrels per day for the rest of the year. Beginning in January 2021, the cuts would decrease to 6 million barrels per day, which would continue through April 2022, according to the statement.

They probably assumed wrongly US production wouldn't be slashed by Dem policies.

The oil that was to flow thru Keystone was mostly from Canada.

He was wrong on how much the XL expansion would carry and where the

A pipeline transports oil that has already been produced. Reactivating wells and platforms that Biden and the Green Goons shut down will bring us back to where we were when we had a true pro-America President. You know way back in 2020.

Do you have a link showing wells and WHEN the dems shut them down?
