Heating costs may triple as nat gas, propane shortage looms

There is a real energy crisis in Europe that was created by a combination of political missteps, climate change fear-mongering and a woke energy policy that could leave much of Europe and Asia undersupplied as they head into winter.

It is also a foreshadowing of what may happen in the U.S.

Oil topped the $75 per barrel level this week, the highest since October of 2018. Instead of learning from the mistakes that Europe made, we instead want to copy their failures and put our economy and people's lives at risk. The Biden administration had better heed the warning signs and call on the U.S. energy industry to try to raise production ahead of what could be one of the most expensive winters that we've seen in years. If not, they risk destroying the U.S. economy and leaving poor people out in the cold

Whatever you do, do not blame the current administration for your heating bills this winter. Remember that he inherited the mess from ‘the other guy’. Nothing is ever his fault.

Biden’s masters won’t do a damn thing but ignore the warnings.

Pres. Potato Head is incapable of ‘heeding the warning signs’. If his handlers and puppet masters tell him to shut down another pipeline and squeeze us all he’ll do it.

What a complete buffoon and shell of a human.. Cheating isn’t the same as winning.

Once Joe Stolen entered the picture I started hoarding a ridiculous amount of cordwood for the woodstoves...

I smelled a senile Jimmy Carter all the way to here...the house was built in the Carter era so of course it was designed with woodstoves....

and Joe can take his sweater and shove it!

I read a report earlier in the day which said that the Russian supply to the EU via the pipeline has been reduced by 57%. I thought to myself, well isn’t this a kick to the head. Who couldn’t see this as an eventuality? Biden kills American energy independence. Then begs OPEC to increase their production to cover his ass. OPEC refuses and DECREASES production to drive up the price of energy. The Russians then follow suit. The result is rapidly increasing energy prices and EU citizens freaking out and panic buying.
Voting for Leftists is always a bad idea. Yet, people continue to do so no matter the consequences. So many humans are so very stupid they are beyond reach. The rest of us are forced to deal with the absolute chaos they create.

If you freeze to death you can’t catch and transmit Covid. Trust the plan.

The Biden administration won’t “heed” any “warning signs” because the Biden administration has brought this crisis to our shores through its myopic and self defeating policy blunders.

Lovely. The power plant that supplies us has been protested for years. First it was straight coal so they installed scrubber stacks and spewed nice white steam so the green terrorists went after them for coal ash. So the power company built a new generator that runs on natural gas and tore down the clean coal stacks.

The Northeast uses more heating oil than other parts of the country, but I expect that will go up in price as well....

A large portion of the western US/Canada propane stock is exported to Japan.

Propane is mainly produced as a byproduct of gasoline refining, and is one of the light end products in crude oil along with the various butanes and “-enes.”

Reduced gasoline production and crude oil extraction results in reduced stocks of bat gas and propane.

We heat with wood from our property. Only cost is a couple of weeks of labor every year.

Pinging the PrepPing list.

Might want to pick up some electric blankets and a little bit of everything you use on a regular basis, food, TP, undies, socks.

Garden and grow meat/eggs if you have a place.

TPTB around the world are trying to break their citizens in preparation for The Great Reset.

I’ve been expecting this for months now.

That’s why we are all ready for this winter already. Got our oil, propane, and wood is on order.

2- 500 gallon tanks of propane here. Used 275 gallons 12 months. Should be fine for cold winter.
