New York, New England Rationing Heating Oil
Newsmax ^ | October 25, 2022 | Jack Gournell

Heating oil wholesalers have started limiting allocations to retail suppliers in the area, Chris Herb, president of the Connecticut Energy Marketers Association, told Bloomberg News.

Remember Kammie’s declaration that for equity reparations the people of Florida after the hurricane would get aid if they were persons of color in order to promote equity?

Will they get the heat and the Deplorables freeze to death in NY and New England now?

Can’t wait for the Left in New England to experience the
winter Biden has in store for them.

This could be the issue that destroys the Democrats hold on
that region.

AND, of course, the rest of the country is subsidizing home heating oil so those in New York and New England will have lower heating bills this winter. Natural gas is plentiful and much cleaner.

Yep, the Northeast actively discouraged Natural Gas pipelines for decades and relied on imports of LNG. A bad cold snap come January or February would be very costly and painful.

As a lifelong resident of the region I guarantee that it won’t. Most voters,and every political office holder,will blame Trump.

You foolishly presume Democrat voters can think and learn.
History tells us otherwise.

Probably so.
