President Joe Biden may be the most capable president in recent history, at least when James Buchanan or Jimmy Carter are considered the worst presidents in history. His handling of almost every crisis facing his government was disastrous, almost as if they wanted to make things worse.
Today, the Biden administration expects Announced the release of 50 million barrels of oil Strive to deal with the energy crisis that occurred during one of the busiest tourist seasons of the year.If you check the government’s Energy Information Administration website, you will see Americans An average of about 18.16 million barrels per day in 2020Therefore, the Biden administration is releasing oil for about three days, and the Americans are doing all our travels.
It’s not just us. Several countries seem to be planning to do the same thing.
This is after a few months Biden attacks any attempt Increase domestic production in the United States and shut down projects and pipelines designed to do this.At the same time, he Plead with the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) Just produce more oil to avoid an imminent energy crisis.
The Biden administration’s message is clear: the United States is withdrawing from the oil production game, no matter how much it hurts us, but we don’t want it to be hurt too much, so we only need other people to complete it for us.
Given the history of the United States and Middle Eastern oil producing countries, such a strategy seems risky at best.
However, if it was not clear before, it should be clear now. Biden’s own energy secretary now speaks out loud.

The goal is to keep Americans away from oil and gas, and her admission basically confirms that the government’s goal is just that. They don’t seem to anticipate how much pain this will cause Americans – and how much it will affect their popularity.
The Biden administration has focused on direct and fundamental changes in American society, partly because of their small majority in Congress and their declining popularity among American voters. They know their time is limited, and they hope to make incredibly huge structural changes to the way the United States operates before leaving office.
However, their Hail Mary made them lose the little support they already had and caused significant harm to American consumers. Their investigation of oil and gas companies’ digging plans and plans to release oil from our strategic reserves are deviations from the source of the problem (their own policies) and will only make things worse.
But it doesn’t have to be so.
The Keystone XL pipeline and other pipeline and drilling operations will greatly increase U.S. production. Biden wants us to focus on overseas producers like OPEC, who use available resources to produce what they can produce. We rely on these foreign entities because Biden and the Democratic Party make us rely on them. They want the United States to stop production and reduce the use of oil and natural gas in the name of environmentalism.
But their inability (or refusal) to predict this outcome—the shortage and growing hostility of American consumers—makes it clear that they cannot make long-term plans. The last administration made the United States more energy independent, we experienced low prices, and prices were only proportional to the demand for the vehicles we used. These prices are now soaring not because of “seasonal” fluctuations or increased usage, but because the government is actively working to ensure that the United States does not produce oil and natural gas.
Like Afghanistan, inflation, and other crises we have experienced, the Biden administration has been sleeping, focusing only on ideological goals without considering the reality.
The energy dependence we face (again) will not prompt Americans to switch to electric vehicles or reduce the use of cars and trucks. There is no plan to keep us away from oil and gas. They just decided to accomplish all this in one fell swoop, and the result was unnecessary difficulties for consumers.
Americans will not change their habits. They would only drive to the polling station to vote for the people who caused them this pain.
