As it is on a global scale. I guess biden controls the entire globe now according to your ramblings.

Like Biden and the Dems, you point fingers in all directions to cover for your mistakes.

Biden killed oil in this country on day one.

No oil company will increase the number of wells or open old ones because the Left wants to kill oil.
It is not wise to waste any profits on an investment that is dying. Oil companies are buying back stock and raising dividends as they give their profits back to their investors.

So many of the products we use are created from oil like tires and such. The poor buy just as many tires as the middle class.
The poor need to fill their cars with gas to get around. The poor need food that is shipped by trucks paying higher and higher fuel prices.

And the costs are all passed directly on to the customer. Yes, the very people Biden promised to help.

Shame!

Do you actually have anything of substance to back these things up or just spewing more BS like usual?

Are you blaming biden that auto makers are moving away from fossil fuels even though it's the same pattern that went on when trump was president?

Since you seem to think you're the ultimate capitalist I thought the obvious would be something you could grasp. During the pandemic people stopped traveling and oil prices went down to the point it was not profitable to produce. As of now since the price has gone up, production hasn't ramped back up to meet the demand and even problems with finding enough truck drivers to deliver the fuel on hand.

You know, that's how capitalism works.

China has a big inflation problem and it's pushing up prices worldwide

Hong Kong (CNN Business)China's inflation headache is getting worse.

The cost of goods leaving China's factories surged by another record rate last month, and there are increasing signs that consumers are starting to feel the pain.

The Producer Price Index jumped 13.5% in October from a year ago, accelerating from September's 10.7%, China's National Bureau of Statistics said Wednesday. Last month's increase was already the fastest since the government began releasing such data in the mid-1990s, according to Eikon Refinitiv.

And it now appears that the higher costs are trickling down. China's Consumer Price Index rose 1.5% in October from a year ago, double the rate of the previous month and the fastest pace of increase since September 2020.

"We are concerned about the passthrough from producer prices to consumer prices," said Zhiwei Zhang, chief economist for Hong Kong-based Pinpoint Asset Management. "Firms managed to use their inventories of inputs as a buffer to avoid passing the higher costs to their customers before, but their inventories have been depleted."

October marks the first time consumer inflation has picked up in five months. The rate had been gradually diminishing since May. But rising energy bills and food supply chain disruptions have begun to stoke higher prices.

Last week, China's Ministry of Commerce issued a notice directing local governments to encourage families to stock up on food and other daily essentials as bad weather, energy shortages and Covid-19 restrictions threatened to disrupt supplies. The sudden warning sparked panic buying among the public and frenzied online speculation.

Authorities attributed the rise in consumer inflation to surging costs for vegetables and gas.

Vegetable prices jumped 16% in October, mainly due to heavy rainfall and rising transportation costs, according to a statement from Dong Lijuan, a senior statistician for the NBS. Extreme weather has hurt crops, and authorities have acknowledged that the cost of transiting across regions could rise because of strict measures intended to contain outbreaks of Covid-19.

Gasoline and diesel prices rose more than 30%, Dong said.

An ongoing energy crunch was also the major contributor to the rise in producer price inflation, as the cost of coal mining and processing has risen.

The world's second largest economy is already growing at the slowest pace in a year as the energy woes, shipping disruptions and a deepening property crisis take their toll.

Rising inflation in the country is also triggering global concerns. The soaring producer inflation is "fueling upward pressure on global inflation," considering China's role as the world's factory and its importance to the global supply chain, according to Ken Cheung, chief Asian foreign exchange strategist for Mizuho Bank.

Producer inflation also may stay high "for a while, likely through the winter," said Jing Liu, senior economist for Greater China at HSBC. She added that energy prices may also continue to rise, and expected that consumer inflation could continue to pick up.

Asian, European motorists face record petrol prices as winter sets in

https://www.reuters.com/business/en...rd-petrol-prices-winter-sets-2021-10-22/

The world had nothing to do with us because President Trump had us energy independent. We controlled our own destiny. We controlled our own production, thus prices.

Biden is killing that.

This is what happens when you believe a habitual liar....

U.S. Is Not “Energy Independent,” Despite Trump’s Claims

https://www.houstonpublicmedia.org/...nergy-independent-despite-trumps-claims/

Ok, bra.

with the exception of imports from Canada and Mexico, in which case it is called North American energy independence.

He didn't have us energy independent, that's a damn lie. Since Obama authorized the export of US oil, maybe even before, we've been buying crude from OPEC and south America.

He used 'bra' like it was an insult. smh.

And 40, why do you think we care so much about Venezuela? Could it have anything to do with their oil?

From mob looting in San Francisco to deaths in Waukesha these shocking crimes should be a wake-up call

Being pro-criminal and anti-police is beginning to undermine the fabric of our civilization.

The deadly actions of the last few days should serve as a wake-up call to most Americans. Being pro-criminal and anti-police is beginning to undermine the fabric of our civilization.

We have already seen a dramatic rise in murders and other crimes.

Now, we have a massacre by a convicted criminal who drove a vehicle into a Christmas parade, killing six people and wounding 40 who had gathered to celebrate the birth of Christ and the beginning of the Christmas season.

The attack in Waukesha, Wisconsin dazed the country because it was so stunning to see such senseless killing and maiming. It was a frightening reminder that we now live in a country where we can all be at risk at any time and place.

At nearly the same time, 2,159 miles to the west, a mob was breaking into stores and looting them. The open vandalism, theft, and destruction resembled a scene from the movie "Clockwork Orange." It is a pattern of criminal aggression which has been building in San Francisco since the city’s communist, pro-criminal, anti-law enforcement district attorney took office.

As of last reports, there have been three days of looting in San Francisco, and it has now spread to San Jose. As the looting is more widely reported, there is a real likelihood it will spread to other cities.

There has been continuous rioting and violence in Portland, Oregon for almost two years, with Antifa as the primary activist agent.

In New York, there is a no bail rule which allows criminals to walk out of jail faster than the police can fill out arrest reports. The result has been that the police have simply stopped arresting people for many small crimes. The mayor of a town in New Jersey, across the river from New York City, told me of similar incidents in his community. There, the police kick would-be thieves out of town rather than arrest them, because they know the local prosecutor will simply release the crooks.

The patterns of destruction resemble scenes from Ayn Rand’s 1957 novel "Atlas Shrugged." Rand believed the inevitable pattern of civilization was for the weak and predatory to make life impossible for the productive and entrepreneurial. She imagined the most competent, energetic, and productive people would withdraw from society, and civilization would subsequently collapse.
Many of our recent developments resemble Rand’s nightmare. Consider the collapse of the rule of law, chaos at the border, and the proposal in New York City to let 800,000 non-citizens vote in local elections. The list goes on.

The tragedy of the breakdown of civilization is: We know how to have law abiding, safe communities – and have had historic experience in our lifetime.

As I wrote in my new book, "Beyond Biden," when George Kelling and James Q. Wilson wrote their ground-breaking "Broken Windows" theory in 1982, they found that if you stop small crimes and disorders, and repair damaged property, you create a positive environment which makes crime decline dramatically.

Police Commissioner Bill Bratton applied this theory with the New York City Transit Police, the Boston Police, as Mayor Rudy Giuliani’s partner in New York City, and finally in Los Angeles.

We know empirically that a sound program of crime prevention, which applies principles that work, leads to safety and prosperity. In 1991, New York City was disastrous, crime-ridden, and dangerous. It became safer – first through Mayor Giuliani and then through Mayor Michael Bloomberg. By 2017, New York City had become the safest in its history.

Then, Mayor Bill de Blasio and his Big Government Socialist belief in attacking the police and favoring criminals undermined the entire system (which had been protecting the innocent while pursuing the guilty).

Soon, the American people are going to grow tired of being sacrificed on the altar of Big Government Socialist fanaticism.

The sooner that happens, the sooner we can eliminate lawlessness and return to peaceful civilization.

-Former Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Newt Gingrich

Newt always was and always be a shill that spouts propaganda and absolute crap.

... and his other-woman "trophy"wife never, ever takes off that golden helmet of hers. What an annoying pair they are...

Typical.

Can't refute what the man has to say, the ignorant attack the man.

Honestly, his BS propaganda doesn't deserve any reaction. It's like stupid ass clowns yelling at you for wearing makeup when you are the only one with a clean face...

1. Make sure you’re not guilty of what you accuse.

2. I do think that Giuliani and Bloomberg were good when it came to the crime in NYC. It’s a shame that Rudy decided to destroy his legacy after his time as mayor, but he did a respectable job on crime from what I can tell.

3. It’s hard to tell a comparison of the policies in place vs the former from what he cites in his article. Most of what he has in there is anecdotal and/or top level. Had he done a more in depth comparison of moves that were made, I think it would have been much more substantive, at least to the people who didn’t want to be spoon fed. He does refer to his earlier books, but dodges any substantive correlation.

4. The other posters you are responding to aren’t wrong. Mgh mentions his use of propaganda and as I mention above, this article chooses propaganda over substance. He uses almost a checklist of buzz words that are inflammatory to his firm and far right base. “Big Government Socialist” is probably the flavor of the week right now. It serves poor use in this sense because A) he praises Bloomberg on one hand, yet Bloomberg was also known as a big government (“Nanny Bloomberg”?), and B) being tough on crime is essentially “big government” and has nothing to do with socialism. I’m pretty sure during the throes of communist revolutions in China, Russia, Cuba and North Korea, I would not want to be caught committing a crime.

So, bottom line, if he wants to substantively discuss a parallel between policies, that can be Gad, but you cannot claim that he is not saturating any underlying valid point he has here with deflections into cheap propaganda.

Newt may have read it, but I doubt he was the author…

The spittle that comes out of the GOP these days is a far cry from the days of William F. Buckley or George Will..

To paraphrase, It’s a noun, a verb, and socialist or communist.

The oil spigot is controled by oil companies not governments.

They control supply and demand by turning it on or off. They manipulate the price.

trump did nothing but attempt to put more money into the hands of big oil.

That's the biggest pile of BS ever...

Explain to me, if the Gas Price rise is on Biden, then why is every country in the world experiencing this rise in prices? Are you trying to tell me that Biden has control of the world wide gas market... That would be stupid to think

Where the hell do you get your information.. Geez,, The USA is not Energy Independent.. Trump tells you that and without even trying to research it, you and those that kiss his ass just believe it.

And Mexico paid for the wall.

Probably from the same damn place the libs got that idea when Bush and his "big oil" friends had gas prices rise? I bet you will claim you don't remember that.

And what isn't being discussed is the cities controlled by Dems are being plundered daily. They don't care. Dems don't care because it is their voters in action.
