New gas pump stickers.

[Wizard29]

I'm not arguing that, the experts and analysts in the energy industry are......

In April, 2020 oil prices were negative and naturally a lot of supply was logically shut off.

Revisiting The Blame For High Gas Prices

Because I get reader feedback on this topic on a weekly basis, I once again explain what is and is not behind the rise of gasoline prices.

www.forbes.com

The Real Reason Gas Prices Are So High Right Now

It's not the Biden administration's energy policies nor Big Oil illegally manipulating prices.

gizmodo.com

Why Is Gas So Expensive Right Now?

If you’ve been balking at prices at the gas pump lately, you’re not alone. The national average price of gas is currently at about $3.40 per gallon, which is 50% more than last year and the highest price AAA has seen since 2014.

www.thomasnet.com

From one of your articles:

"But the truth, experts say, is not as easy as either side makes it out to be. In fact, the biggest driver may not be oil companies or politicians. Instead, the price surge is largely driven by the whims of international producers and U.S. investors."

Absolutely true. Because...who is going to make any investments in this type of energy with an administration that has such an aggressive stance toward it?

Attempting to put degrees of separation between a cause and an effect does not eliminate the cause.

And if in April 2020 prices were so down that "naturally a lot of supply was logically shut off" was that because of the extreme cold In the south or wasn't it?

But yeah, it must be just a coincidence that prices shot up as soon as Biden came into office.

I know that most of what you post is bullshit as do you. Your fishing trips are on a similar level to Grads crap. Or are you really that stupid?

Clueless joe, trudy and other commies have intentionally gone after the oil and gas industry and are dodging the responsibility of what their stupid games have cost and will cost both countries. Fuck their excuses and fuck them

I think that you give Presidents way too much credit. Fuel price increases/decreases would have been the same regardless of who won the election. Presidents simply don't have that much power over international commodity prices and are not as competent as you want to give them credit. But what do I know, I didn't write those articles, some "experts" did who know a lot more than I ever will. Hell, I didn't even make it barely past 2 years of college.

Maybe you are right and all these articles by industry experts are wrong. Biden is one of the most competent leaders ever and through his clever and crafty wit, intelligence and effectiveness has manipulated world energy prices, world refinery capacity and utilization as well as worldwide supply and demand in a fiendishly clever and perfectly executed plot to turn us all into serfs of the government. He is actually that smart and that genuinely effective under your theory. Biden is solely responsible for these fuel price increases, commodity increases, and all the inflation.

Biden killed transport and exploration, trudy killed transport and exploration. Together they killed the confidence in the industry for companies and people to invest in the industry as returns are uncertain. Cut the supply in a tight market and prices go up. Being I live in the richest area of petro resources in North America we have been living it for years, ndp, liberal, and democrats are all bad for the oil business or any business in general except big government

Stupidity is not competence, unless you are a liberal then it is normal to be confused

"Biden killed transport and exploration"

The large drop in exploration, refining and transport began in early 2020 cumulating in negative oil prices in April of 2020. Biden wasn't even the nominee in early 2020?

So objectively the data doesn't show this in any way shape or form and it sounds a little melodramatic but I guess we both make our bets based upon our best objective analysis.

so if gas prices are at all time highs, why hasnt exploration and manufacturing not also skyrocketed?

due to govt intervention.

This is not an absolute, but seriously, its basic shit.

Out of curiosity exactly how many barrels of
Crude was Keystone XL “transporting” and how many would of it even been transporting next year?

And why would Trump Supporting America first patriots want to grant a non-US corporation rights to build and transport crude across America and compete with US pipelines and refiners?

It’s quite telling. the likes were literally a 13:1 ratio to dislikes. People we’re having a blast laughing about those stickers. Unfortunately a few people were able to drag their knuckles off the floor long enough to mash the “report button“ repeatedly.


It’s going to be a slaughter in November.

in fact, Biden is already saying the election is rigged….

Biden policy means higher oil prices: Goldman Sachs
Expect oil prices to rise under the new Biden administration.

In a recent note from Goldman Sachs, commodities analysts noted that Biden’s initial executive orders – which included restrictions on hydrocarbon leasing in North America, drilling, and pipelines – support oil prices.
On top of that, the administration’s comments “suggest no urgency in lifting sanctions with Iran,” keeping that country’s supply out of the market, keeping oil prices from falling.

The costs of Biden’s war on oil include higher gas prices: NY Times​

It takes profound naïveté for Biden not to recognize how his and his team’s anti-oil animus has driven fuel costs skyward. In fewer than 11 months, this administration has:

• Killed the Keystone XL pipeline.
  
  
• Threatened to plug the Canada-to-Michigan Enbridge Line 5 pipeline.
  
  
• Halted oil leases in a sliver of Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.
  
  
• Stopped oil and gas leases on federal lands.
  
  
• Proposed a methane tax that could cost this industry up to $10 billion annually.
  
  
• Encouraged left-wing activists to pressure financiers to defund oil companies.

That would be inconsistent with your view that Biden is solely responsible for increases in global energy prices and under a Trump government prices would have never risen a penny.

There’s this thing called supply and demand, you might have heard of it.


When you have a commodity with stable demand and you take a nation that is a net exporter of this product and convert it into a net importer, price of that product will go up internationally.

Wrong yet again oh "Flaming One"! You constantly try and tell me what my view is....and frankly, you don't have any clue as to my "positions". It is very apparent that if you do not like someones opinion, you will fabricate one for them........

Your views on me are 100% totally misguided and are simple anti-Trump fantasies wondering around in your mind (baseless).........you now come across as an empty and pathetic joke, AKA, a Bozo...........must be that Trump hate factor that is constantly hindering your judgement....... Not sure who you are trying to impress....but you are failing miserably.

My position is clear and Biden's "actions" have greatly assisted in these price escalations..... of course you know this as this is exactly what I stated, and the majority of economists agree and you know I am right.

But America remains a net energy exporter and both supply and demand was anything but stable due to Covid.

Crude oil prices increased in 2021 as global crude oil demand outpaced supply

www.eia.gov

​

Global petroleum production increased more slowly than demand, driving higher prices. The slower increase in production was mostly attributable to OPEC+ crude oil production cuts that started in late 2020. OPEC and other countries, such as Russia, that coordinate production with OPEC (referred to as OPEC+) announced in December 2020 that they would continue to limit production increases throughout 2021 to support higher crude oil prices.
