Trump “will work with the fossil fuel industry to increase oil production,”

Hey Bernie...I already said I’m voting for him...you don’t have to convince me!

Doesn’t increasing oil production hurt Russia where it hits the hardest??? Someone forgot to tell the lefties that.

The primary greenhouse gas is water vapor. CO2 is a trace gas which makes up approximately .04% of our atmosphere (78% Nitrogen, 21% Oxygen, .9% Argon). Yes, that’s 99% of the atmosphere is made up of Nitrogen, Oxygen, & Argon. Animals need O2, plants need CO2. Higher concentrations of CO2 are beneficial for plants and do not cause warming. Warming is caused by the sun, earth’s elliptical orbit and axis wobble, and a number of other factors. The Climate change/crisis promoters are con artists & the ignorant. Bernie Sanders falls into both categories.

Actually, from what I’ve read, man’s co2 takes up a mere 0.00136% of the atmosphere (and some estimates have it even less). Man doesnt emit enough co2 to cause a shift in climate one way or the other. Nowhere near enough. THe ly8ng left make it seem like man has caused a thick blanket of co2 to envelop the glob, preventing any heat from escaping.

The fact thoug is that man’s co2, combined with natural co2 is such a small amount that it is impossible for it to,shift climates globally or even locally.

TO give an example of how little there is- it would,be akin to taking a large 20 ounce glass of 90 degree water, and putting in one tiny drop (which would equal 0.00136% of the contents of the glass) of 100 degree water, and then claiming that the drop will cause “catastrophic warming” inside tHe glass.

It’s as though these people think we’ve never seen a Trump POTUS before, the gaslighting of “he’ll be a disaster” was proven false during his term.

Yes, we’ll go back to everything going in the right direction! The horror!

Well, Bernie, the reason oil prices went up is perfectly simple:            
People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices. It is impossible indeed to prevent such meetings, by any law which either could be executed, or would be consistent with liberty and justice. But though the law cannot hinder people of the same trade from sometimes assembling together, it ought to do nothing to facilitate such assemblies; much less to render them necessary. - Adam Smith, Wealth of Nations (1776)
The minute Biden “read the riot act” to all the oil companies, telling them that oil was going to become a non factor in the economy, the result was directly and exactly “a conspiracy against the public, and a contrivance to raise prices.” Far from demanding that they compete at arm’s link to satisfy society’s need/desire for energy, as any liberal antimonopolist would do. Biden’s dictum constituted permission and encouragement for the oil companies to cease competing. So they did, reducing their expenditures on producing more oil and reducing the supply - forcing up the price of oil precisely as a cartel would do.

In the past year I have been listening to “reason,” as Bernie would have it, to the extent that I now can relate to Elon Musk’s prediction that - a critical tipping point having been passed due in no small part to abusive Biden action - battery electric vehicles have become seriously competitive with gasoline-fueled vehicles. I have bought what for me is a serious chunk of Tesla stock as a result. But - recall the “Osborne Effect” - it is at present a good time to hold off on buying a new car, if you can.

The problem is precisely that BEVs (read almost exclusively Teslas) have been coming down in price and can be expected to continue to do so in the future. Which means that used Tesla prices face serious price competition from new Teslas. So if you’re considering a new car, sharpen your pencil to see if you should prefer a new Tesla - but altho I wouldn’t expect a Tesla’s performance to degrade I would expect declining resale value. So try not to buy - any car - unless you can be happy holding on to it for the longish term.

It was 29 degrees last night in Eastern Washington.
Not too much global warming to be found.

It’s not a problem!! My father worked hard for Texaco for over 40 years. Only time he missed a day was for a flu epidemic in the 1960’s. The nurse at the refinery was so concerned she came to our house to check on him. When that old fool, Biden, took the oil out of the equation, he stole every Texan’s legacy from them and that just isn’t right. I’d give anything to have my Daddy back for just one more day but I am glad he was not here to see what Biden has done to the oil industry. He just wouldn’t understand it. I know I don’t.

Best campaign ad that we didn’t have to pay for....

Even the left is saying it!!! Trump will increase oil production and bring down the cost of energy, and help make the USA energy independent reducing our dependance on foreign nations.

Win, win, win.

LOL

Tell them that increased energy production helps Ukraine and watch their heads explode like Norman in ST:TOS “I, Mudd” episode.
