  5. We need to get some traction if this league is going to continue. We need to vote on rules, something that hasn't happened the last few years. Instead everyone shows up right before the draft and none of the proposed rule changes were ever really considered. Lets even see if we should continue this league. I made the poll public in case someone not in the league votes.
  6. The company I work for had 10% layoffs 2025, 25% in 2020, and 30% in 2015. At one point in 2015 me and one other person had an entire floor to ourselves. Every time I knew it was coming. 50/50 we have a small reduction this year of 5-10% is my guess. Will know more soon based on global conditions.
  7. 1. The stopping of the keystone pipeline actually helped lower the price of gasoline in north-central US. The reason this is the case is because Canada wanted to sell their oil on the global market, the pipeline was to get the oil sands to gulf coast refineries where the majority of refined goods is exported to global markets. However, since they could not get their oil to global market they were actually forced to sell it more locally to northern US at suppressed prices. 2. This seems like a talking point, I know Biden's administration banned some areas from drilling that would never have been drilled anyways. But there were no new regulations on the oil/gas industry that effected us the last 4 years. 3. How would green energy hurt gas prices? Wouldn't it lower the price of gasoline. If you keep supply the same and lower demand it decreases price. Adding green energy to the grid and having a percentage of the population that is able to switch to electric vehicles would be good for gasoline prices, however it would have opposite effect on electricity prices. If you increase the demand of electricity by adding electric vehicles to the grid, then it would be upward pressure on electricity prices without adding additional electricity supply. Sorry, going to have to get back to work. If you respond, I won't answer until much later today.
  8. I don't believe that chart without a link to a study by an economist from a reputable organization such as MIT, Princeton, etc. Like I responded to cyclone, I don't believe the words that a poltician says and I don't trust random stats on the internet. Sorry.
  9. I don't believe the words out of politicians mouths, I look at their actions.
  10. It went up, and economists directly tied some of the inflation directly to the inflation reduction act. However, this is not a topic that interests me like oil/gas prices. I don't want to research articles to find out exactly how much inflation was caused by the bill.
  11. Keystone pipeline was incredibly unpopular amongst democrats, so Biden did play a part in killing that, however drilling did greatly expand while he was in office. To be fair he suffered from dementia, but his decision making process could be described as flip/flopping. When the public started crying about gas prices then drilling expanded greatly. Hardly the policy of someone who was anti-oil.
  12. If that was the policy of the administration, please explain why drilling rigs increased by 50% in US and why oil production went up as per my last 2 posts. You have drank the kool-aid, years ago you used to be one of the handful of posters who could see topics from both sides and now you are full on propaganda and attacking any decision from the other side and defending the republicans like it is your sports team.
  13. Oil production peaked in late 2023 and has remained steady since then. This is a lag from the drilling rig count because it takes a while from start of drilling until oil actually gets produced. However, I expect another spike in domestic oil production/rig count because I would have to imagine all of our oil producers are salivating over 100+ dollars a bbl. There are profits to be made right now if they can ramp up production fast enough. https://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/hist/leafhandler.ashx?n=pet&s=mcrfpus2&f=m
  14. Ok, you got me. There are 42 gallons in a barrel and he raised the tax on a barrel from 9.7 to 16.4, this is raising the fees on a gallon of oil a whole 1 and a half pennies. I did not consider this, but does this really matter? Edit, my math was bad. They raised the price on gallon of oil by .15 pennies. Not by a whole penny.
  15. Biden was a terrible president, however the rig count increased 50% from the first 2 years of his term to the last 2 years. The government at that time was not trying to kill off domestic oil production. https://www.eia.gov/dnav/ng/ng_enr_drill_s1_a.htm
