gas prices up 23 cents in 1 week -11 cents hike today alone

So we stop drilling for oil and gas , smegma breath. How are you going to generate electricity for the 286.9 million registered cars in the US ? How are you going to heat your home or even cool it? Electricity is in large part generated by using fossil fuels.

Without the need for gasoline to power most vehicles, the demand for oi will surely decrease.

 

[Grokmaster]

LET'S GO BRANDON!!

 

[ExpressLane]

One fucking pathetic excuse after another. Electric vehicles are in the not very distant future.

What are you driving TODAY what do the trucks that deliver your food TODAY run on. I have no problem with a sane slow steady progression to electric. But we need to walk before we run. We need to be energy independent NOW and in the future. Shit breath.

And so would investment and exploration for oil and gas so production would fall. Smegma breath.

We are as energy independent today as we were the day trump left office. Now if that Postmaster General who Trump appointed would have a fleet of electric vehicles built instead of gasoline powered. In the meantime UPS, Amazon and others will have an all electric fleet shortly.

If we need less oil, surely there will be less need for exploration.

How are we going generate electricity , cysticercosis brain. Don't say nuclear because you guys don't like that either.

Nope! Not according to the government's own site.https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=46776

No one ever said that drilling for oil will end, but there will be much less of a demand for it once people buy electric vehicles.
We still have a demand for coal, only the mining of it has decreased greatly due to natural gas.

use you head, sweet pea, electric vehicles wont be here in volume for 4-5 years. In the meantime they will continue to grow in importance.

If there is less demand then there is less potential profits for drilling then there is less money for drilling. And what do we do with the oil that comes up with the gas? What do we do with the people who support their families from drilling for oil and gas? What if China stops exporting batteries for our cars. What if the won't let us buy the rare earths needed in a electric car. If we have to buy batteries from China are we energy independent still?

My dear, electric is the future and no amount of your phone tears will change that. The auto companies have committed to being all electric in a few year. This is called progress, as opposed to your living in the past.

Cum breath, I said I have no problem with a sane orderly transition to a new mode of transportation. We progressed from the horse to the horse and steam to ICE and we will progress eventually from ICEs to electricity . But we will need to power them with something. Nuclear and renewables would be the sane choice but e all know Liberals aren't sane. And we will still need fossil fuels for plastics and air travel however. But I still need to drive my grand kids to school and to tow my 5th wheel on vacations TODAY an that can only be done today with a Diesel powered truck.

Dear American Patriots for a Democratic World,

Its going to get worse for a bit, but we got this.

There is no democracy in the Americas.

 

[Noking]

I have actually seen an expert say that $185/Barrel oil is possible.

Trump says $200.

Have and other Trump turd if you like the taste so much.

Ride a bike if you cannot afford a gallon of gas.

Not practical, and that doesn't change the increasing price of the stuff you have to buy increasing because of fuel costs.

 

[Into the Night]

I would pay $5.00 or more in support of Ukraine and to hurt Russia financially?!!

I won't hurt Russia to pay $5 a gallon in gasoline.

Same individuals who are not criticizing Biden because he won't stop Russian oil when doing such would raise the cost of gas in the U.S.

Biden can't stop Russian oil from being sold on the market.

Just like when covid hit the U.S., rather than working together to address the first generational crisis in decades many on the right just attacked and fought the efforts being made.

The Democrats CAUSED the crisis. It was DEMOCRATS that shut down the economy, stupid.

Makes you wonder how they would have reacted during WWII when such as gas was rationed or restrictions were put on domestic activities, but, but, but, it is my "freedom"

False equivalence. This is not WW2.

But you are "patriotic" if you have your own AM radio show or occupy a nightly prime time slot on Fox

Non-sequitur fallacy.

When we stand on the right side of history America comes together

So why do you stand on the wrong side of history?

It might happen if he turns to nukes. Gas prices right now are jumping 20 cents/day for absolutely no reason.

The reason is the increasing shortage in the market since Biden cut off oil production in America.

Sure...blame it on the Putin war. In the past, if someone farted in the Persian Gulf, prices went up.

Nope. It's not the war.

American petro companies are refusing to pump oil.

There is less oil to pump, thanks to Biden.

They are no different than OPEC.

OPEC found out the hard way they aren't a monopoly. OPEC didn't cause the crisis during Carter. Carter caused the crisis during Carter. Price controls don't work.

Of course, their masters demand it:

You really should stop listening to government radio.

I read an interesting piece the other day re. sand. Because our oil companies refused to invest in new drilling last year in lieu of paying dividends,

No. It was because Biden shut down production.

now that they want to jump on this hot market they cannot. There is (evidently) a shortage of sand!

Biden created the shortage, dumbass.

We need the Feds. to start a national oil/gas drilling apparatus that will compete with the private sector.

Communism doesn't work.

We gloated when the fracking industry was pumping like crazy and bragging about our energy independence.

Since it got shut down by Biden, there is really nothing to gloat over now.

Now they're just another member of OPEC.

Fracking is a technique, not a nation.

Landing there with the help of Wall St.

Commodity markets are not run on Wall St.
