Biden Wages Energy War
Here’s a simple, but potentially very effective, way to improve the nation’s power difficulties: Stop discouraging our energy production.
Yet, to cite just a few of the Biden administration’s counterproductive moves, this is what it has been doing, starting with the president’s first day in office: revoking the Keystone XL pipeline permit; halting new leases in Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge; forbidding new oil and gas leases on federal lands and waters; adding red tape to boost the regulatory burden for building pipelines and other energy infrastructure; canceling multiple oil and gas lease sales; and then — because of the resultant, predictable declining production in this country — blasting domestic producers for supposed price-gouging while imploring for more output from Middle Eastern and other authoritarian governments.
These irrational moves are being done, in large part, in the name of mitigating “climate change” on the planet, which progressive zealots seem to value above all else. Such shortsighted progressives have a disproportionate effect on the Democratic Party and the Biden White House.
