Economic Suicide to Save a Planet That Doesn’t Need to be Saved.

Economic Suicide to Save a Planet That Doesn’t Need to be Saved.

Ecosystems are Thriving and Prospering, Vegetation is Exploding

V.P. Harris cites climate ‘crisis,’ and pushed for $1B for floods, storms, and extreme heat. They are pushing for economic suicide to save the planet that doesn’t need to be saved. 

WATCH: Kamala Harris announces $1 billion to states for floods, extreme heat.

The “Inflation Reduction Act” will most likely become law by the end of the week, which will just add to inflation and really hurt us economically because the thing that they’ve got in here for “green energy” is everything but green. When they talk about renewable energy they don’t talk about what’s called the Levelized cost of energy. They don’t look at the entire life cycle. This bill is a disaster.

Interview with CLIMATE CHANGE ANALYST: Gregory Wrightstone. 

They [Leftists] want us to use wind and solar, which are unbelievably expensive for the amount of BTUs created.

Wind power is expensive

“… And all of these enormous, absolutely incredibly enormous natural gas reserves, we can’t get the gas out because all these pipelines are being shut down by permitting problems and mainly lawsuits from environmental companies. They’re being shut down.” – Gregory Wrightstone

“And we’re going to spend a lot of money, have a lot of inflation, and have a lot of disappointment at the end of the day when this is all said and done.” – John Rush

The Sticker Shock of Inflation

The Sticker Shock of Inflation

The Average U.S. household is seeing its cost of living rise by about

$4,400 a year. – Inflation is Expensive.

The American Consumer Institute released a report entitled, “The Recent Causes of Inflation and Adverse Consequences for Consumers.” They looked at a couple of the multiple factors that can contribute to inflation, and they specifically focused on three.

How the stimulus increased demand and pulled the prices up, how regulations can increase costs for consumers, and last but certainly not least, they focused on how energy can drive prices up through the entire supply chain. All of these factors combined contributed to inflation growing faster than wages, which eats away at the purchasing power of the American consumer.

An Interview with Tirzah Duren: Policy Analyst for The American Consumer Institute.

Rising Inflation From Covid Stimulus, Regulations, and Energy Costs.

Rising Energy Costs

“When you look at the overall cost of energy prices, they have increased over 40% as of June. And when you look at the energy and transportation costs, this is really hurting the low-income consumer who has less disposable income to begin with. And when you break it down by income group, the increased cost in energy and transportation amount to almost 80% of expenses households under $15,000 and yes, that’s a lower threshold, but it’s a massive increase for the people who really can afford it the least.”Tirzah Duren 

“I’m just kind of a common sense guy that you could look at what was happening all the way back from the beginning of Covid and some of the stimulus things we were doing, the shutting down of industries and so on. I mean, if you looked at all of that, to me it was just a sign that buckle up, you’re going to see inflation like we haven’t seen in quite a long time. And the reality is we’re here. It happened.” – John Rush

The Biden Administration is hurting America’s Energy Independence

 

John and some guests have made the connection between restricting energy production in the US with high gas prices as a way for the Leftists to advance their radical agenda in transforming America away from freedom and into one of socialism and communism.

 

Biden’s Energy Policies Enable  Putin’s Russia While UN Decries Global Threat from Climate Change 

Bonner R. Cohen – https://www.cfact.org/
Interview

As Vladimir Putin’s forces unleash mayhem on Ukrainian cities and villages, the United Nations has chosen this moment in history to warn the world of impending doom – not from Putin’s tanks and missiles, but from manmade climate change.

“Climate change is killing people,” said Helen Adams, King’s College London and co-author of the latest UN report on climate change, released four days after Russian tanks rolled into Ukraine. 

The Biden administration shares this view.

It takes a lot of money to invade a country the size of Ukraine, and the Biden administration has been bankrolling Russia and China by suppressing fossil-fuel production in the U.S., thereby driving up the global price of oil and natural gas to the benefit of oil and gas exporter Russia and to the benefit of China, which has a tight grip on the materials that go into wind turbines and solar panels  

Biden is determined to force-feed Americans in the name of combating climate change.

In doing so, Biden has redirected petrodollars to Putin’s war machine and strengthened an ascendant China. https://www.cfact.org/2022/03/02/un-doubles-down-on-climate-as-putins-tanks-roll/

So What’s the Problem with Oil

So What’s the Problem with Oil

So What’s the Problem with Oil

Jersey Joe, “Once again Democrats are proposing a punitive  “Windfall profits tax” on oil companies in the form of a 50% tax surcharge on the profits they make on any oil they sell above a price of $66 per barrel.”  

Now we all realize that the oil-producing companies don’t set the price of a barrel of oil.  That is set by the commodity traders who bid against each other for those crude oil supplies.  The only thing the oil companies do is to sell their oil production to the highest bidder, something they have a fiduciary obligation to their shareholders to do.
So what is the message the Biden administration is sending to the oil Companies? To me it sounds like:

“Please produce more oil so we can punish you for doing it!”

Jersey Joe: Oil production and the Liberals.

David Holt, President, of Consumer Energy Alliance spoke about the Biden administration and how they are hurting Americans with their policies and slowing down the production of fuel.
