Closing the Keystone pipeline caused American gas prices to increase by $1.20 a gallon? Where did you get that information from? I know you've been fed a crock of crap which it seems you believe, but American oil production set record highs under Biden and America is that #1 oil producing nation in the world. Oil production increased every year Biden was president. Here are the facts about oil production under Biden.............
Biden isn’t advertising America’s record oil boom
Biden is not “waging war” on American energy. He’s boosting it.
The US is the largest crude oil producer in the world, pumping out nearly 13 million barrels on average every day in 2023, an all-time record, according to new data from the US Energy Information Administration.
That’s an awkward milestone for President Joe Biden, who has arguably done more than any modern president to facilitate America’s transition away from fossil fuels to greener alternatives.
For the last six years, America has outstripped Russia, Saudi Arabia, and other OPEC countries in crude oil production. And it has picked up the pace under Biden, who had approved more permits for oil and gas drilling on public lands by last October than former President Donald Trump had by the same point in his presidency.
Biden has expedited the construction of an oil pipeline in West Virginia and approved the Willow oil project in Alaska, over the opposition of environmental activists and despite his 2020 campaign promise to stop drilling on federal lands altogether.
Increased oil production has helped keep gas prices low after they spiked in 2022, even as OPEC countries have slashed supply in an attempt to drive prices higher and despite disruptions to the global supply chain wrought by Russia’s war in Ukraine. American production, bolstered by advancements in drilling that improve efficiency, is also helping to meet what is projected to be record global demand in 2024.
But Biden’s challenge now, in an election year, is reconciling the country’s expanding oil sector with his claim in the State of the Union address last week that he’s “taking the most significant action ever on climate in the history of the world.”
American oil production increased every year while Biden was president. You really need to stop believing everything you're being told and seek out the truth. Oil prices are set by global production. That's why prices are going down now........
Oil ends at four-year lows as OPEC+ accelerates output hikes
Won’t do much in America where price gouging and political price fixing seems to be the norm with big oil. A butterfly will fart in Nigeria and cause a shortage of materials for processing cheap crude into low dollar gasoline… watch and see.
Meanwhile, for the 20th year in a row, big oil betters will receive unwarranted windfalls from high profits. Same ole same ole played on a loop. Big oil backs the right ONLY. When a dem takes office, gas skyrockets, yet nobody can explain why. When Trump causes stagflation, gas goes down, even though prices on everything else goes up…. Rigged much?

Reeeeaaaally reaching there!

Maybe but maybe not. Crude oil prices have dropped by 20% just since trump took office thanks to a major increase in production by OPEC+. Gasoline was just over $3.00 per gallon when trump took office. If the price of gas went down proportionately with the price of oil gas would cost about $2.40 a gallon now. How much is the price of gas where you live?
We both know his claim about gas being $1.98 a gallon was a lie.
It may all even out but as of now the price of gas hasn't decreased at the same rate as the price of crude oil.
