Elitist, traitorous enemy of the state.

I'm sure it will just be growing pains when people literally start dying this summer from heat because their energy bills have skyrocketed so high they can't pay them.

That will happen. For those of you whose electricity contracts are about to expire, you are about to be very surprised. Overall bills are going to at least double.

That's why he wont take action to increase production. This is part of his awesome plan. Biden and he fellow Marxists know what is best for us. This is like eating your peas!

And every MSM source will independently and non-partisanly and with complete journalistic integrity praise Biden for his great leadership and vision. Or ignore he said it.

It's a feature not a glitch of democrats rule and their envirowhacko controllers…..who used to just be Democrat supporters. Now they run things over there.


Let's get this detail cleared up. There is not "envirowhacko controllers". There are those that control and wish to do so at the harm to average Americans. Heck, even humans across the Globe. They are evil incarnate. The envirowhackos are the Useful Idiots that help sell the made up ball of lies (the level at which it's sold). Climate Change is the new name for a fearporn problem that never sold under the old name, and is a vehicle for the team above to basically rob us of our freedoms.

President Biden said that the country is going through an "incredible transition" away from fossil fuels via the high gas prices being experienced nationwide.

Biden made the statement on gas prices during a joint press conference with Japan Prime Minister Fumio Kishida on Monday.

"Here's the situation. And when it comes to the gas prices, we're going through an incredible transition that is taking place that, God willing, when it's over, we'll be stronger and the world will be stronger and less reliant on fossil fuels when this is over," Biden said, seeming to justify or praise those sky-high prices Americans face at the pump.

Biden's comments come amid a stretch of record-high gas prices which the American Automobile Association says is "unprecedented."

I wouldn't be surprised if they think some wild-eyed, crazy scientist is going to outfit everyone's gas-guzzling vehicles with a Mr. Fusion.

This country is being run by a bunch of incompetents.

I never dreamed we'd come to this point. It just seems such utter madness, and what is frightening is how many people in responsible positions are caving in to every demand that is made, repeating any kind of nonsense that you're supposed to repeat.

I do believe that we may well be - we may well reach a point of no return. I hope that of course, that will never happen. But there is such a thing as a point of no return.

The Roman Empire overcame and many problems in its long history, but eventually it reached the point where it simply could no longer continue on.

And much of that was from within not just the Barbarians attacking from outside.

…..

Well, what I see is that if the election goes to Biden, that there's a good chance that the Democrats will then control all three -- two branches of Congress and the White House, and considering the kinds of things that they are proposing, that could well be the point of no return for this country.

I mean I could see them trying and being successful.

If we thought inflation and baby formula were a problem then get used to shortages and famine to an extent unimaginable.
Imagine?

If?

Would love to see the actual number of people who are switching from gas cars to electric cars because of the high gas prices. Pretty sure the number is extremely small because no one can afford a new electric vehicle when prices for all other daily items are skyrocketing. Not to mention, electricity prices are up across the board too so are you really even saving money switching to electric?

Go buy an EV. You'll need to go into another ~$50k in debt at high interest rates, but at least you'll save money at the pump! And you'll have to wait who knows how long to actually take delivery. Pretty easy thing to do for the average American! #Buttigieg

Until the vehicle mileage usage fee is implemented, of course. Then it's much more apples to apples.

I made sure to lock in a 5 year rate for my electric bill a couple weeks ago. Only a 1.5 cent per kWh increase from my previous plan so I will take it! With the way things are going that might end up being a steal.

My 2 year plan is up in July. I looked at my latest bill and was paying 8.6c per kWhr.

Cheapest renewals on powertochoose.com is 13.8c per kWhr, and these are all for THREE TO SIX YEAR terms...

So basically, to get the lowest price now I have to lock in this terrible rate until Sleepy Joe is kicked out of the oval.

3-6 month plans are like 21-22c per kWhr now. 2 months ago when I locked in a 4 month plan, I got 9.0c per kWhr. Absolutely ridiculous...

Yeah, old "sleepy joe" kind of prepping everyone for $80+K electric vehicles.
In the meantime, Michigan (stays pretty cool there in the summer = small % of rural housing has AC) is looking @ "rolling blackouts".

People who spend too much time in government get used to driving change with sticks rather than carrots. They figure that with enough pain, the people will eventually be driven to the "preferred" behavior.

Because they are mostly incapable of beating the free market, they are pretty much incapable of creating a preferable alternative to create natural behavioral change, and their subsidizing (laundering) of "green" energy has done little other than weaken our grid.

The slow pace of their "green" efforts leaves them frustrated and looking to the stick (via introduced economic pain). And introducing pain is easy for them.

If they ACTUALLY cared about the environment - they'd be fast-tracking nuclear power plants to make reliable electricity cheaper and positioned to out-compete O&G in some spaces. But they aren't problem solvers - theyre activists who chase causes. So now we all get to deal with central planners adding pain to our lives with little positive net outcome.

"What leftists describe as "empathy" or "compassion" is really narcissism: the feeling of being a "good person" and having power over the putative victims they so solicitously help.
The tell is that there is no reconsideration when their "empathy" causes harm to the people it’s directed to. - PEG

I locked in at .13 a month ago. Just checked and lowest I could find was .18. My service company is at .20 now for a three year.

I also legitimately had a classmate a week ago try to tell me this is not the administrations fault. This incredibly smart, yet ignorant, 22 year old who has only known academia and living with parents knows the truth of how this world works apparently.

We are so screwed. I truly believe it is a point of no return now. I held out for a long while but this admin shows zero signs of stopping so now I can't help but be pessimistic.

The next five years are going to be VERY interesting IMO.
