Middle-class Jobs Menaced by Biden’s Energy Assaults
Item: Bloomberg Businessweek (February 1) quoted a statement made by Joe Biden on January 27 amid a “flurry of executive orders,” with the president remarking: “Today is climate day at the White House, which means that today is jobs day at the White House.”
Facts and figures not his strong suit: Biden says that going to wind and solar will create lots of jobs, apparently not realizing that most of the jobs will be in China or don’t pay as much as oil-related jobs. He also seems oblivious to the fact that each U.S. oil job creates additional U.S. jobs. (Photo credit: AP Images)
Item: President Biden, reported Reuters on January 25, “vowed to replace the U.S. government’s fleet of roughly 650,000 vehicles with electric models as the new administration shifts its focus toward clean energy.”
Item: Biden, according to CNBC for January 27, signed “a series of executive orders that prioritize climate change across all levels of government and put the U.S. on track to curb planet-warming carbon emissions.” This included orders “to halt new oil and natural gas leases on public lands and waters.”
