Pimpadeaux 2,240 Posted October 26, 2021 1 hour ago, MTSkiBum said: Most people misunderstand what the pipeline was for and the effect that it would have. Although to be honest it is a moot point now since Canada has mostly figured out workarounds. However the pipeline was designed for Canada to get their oil to the global market, which would have had the net negative effect of increasing oil/gasoline prices in the upper mid west. The reason that the pipeline would actually cause higher oil/gasoline prices is because Canada could not sell their oil for market value and had to take less than market value to sell the oil locally. The pipeline that people loved so much would have had the opposite effect that 90% of the country believed it would have. Boom. I've read this time and time again. Plus, while pipeline construction would have employed many, pipeline operation itself would employed few, so all those truckers and the people their money supports would have been screwed. Nixing the pipeline had minimal impact on rising gas prices. Again, the primary engine behind rising gas prices has been and always will be supply and demand, and COVID hugely supply and demand. To blame the sitting president for everything is ignorant, but that's what people do when their political peckers lean too far to one side. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On day 1 Biden stopped new oil and natural gas leases on public lands and pressured the banking industry not to lend money to the oil, gas, and coal industries. There is your supply shortage. My entire life we were energy dependent on the Middle East and we spent trillions of dollar protecting that oil. Then Donald J Trump is elected and 18 months later we are energy independent and became the leading producer of oil in the world. Then we elect Joe Biden and in 6 months we are dependent on the ME again and he begs the ME to produce more oil. This is not a mistake it is the plan. Don’t be afraid to see what you see.

Even in the article it says he slowed at the beginning. Looks like he’s trying to hold off on even higher prices, according to that article. Also, it doesn’t say how large those oil deposits are, but I doubt any of them are nearly as large as the Alaskan ones. But thanks.

And I acknowledged that Biden's actions impacted prices, but you can't just eliminate COVID and throw all the blame on Biden. COVID is the No. 1 reason behind low prices last year and high prices now. https://wtop.com/national/2021/10/covid-19-drives-gas-oil-prices-to-their-highest-in-7-years/ Quote Prices jumped this past week when OPEC said it would not boost oil production in the middle of a global shortage caused by deep production cuts at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. “We can thank just about everything that we’re seeing now on the fact that COVID stifled consumer demand long enough that it caused prices to collapse, which caused production to collapse,” said Patrick De Haan, petroleum analyst for GasBuddy. Oil companies reacted swiftly last year when the pandemic sharply reduced demand for gasoline, which sent oil prices plunging. “They did so by cutting production and laying off tens of thousands of workers who, now in many cases, have moved on to other areas and received jobs elsewhere, so this is simply like many things in the last year induced by COVID and made a challenge by tight labor markets,” De Haan said. But keep on ignoring that and blaming Biden, because seeing FACTS turn your ignorance into a dirty doormat continues to generate amusement for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
