so, yes, the keystone xl pipeline
Biden’s Burdensome Regulations are Shutting Down American Refineries
The Committee on Energy and Commerce is the oldest standing legislative committee in the U.S. House of Representatives and is vested with the broadest jurisdiction of any congressional authorizing committee.energycommerce.house.gov
yeah...i understand there are people that wanted the pipeline built
So in times of high inflation small businesses should flourish. No problem then. Next topic I guess.
They do, but I was responding to your original post about how businesses didn’t become greedy until Biden came into office which was a joke by you.
That's not what Katie Porter got admitted to, on the record, under oath. Corporations raising costs under the guise of inflation is a thing. They did it. Record profits because of it.
Here comes a guy bringing us something that I thought was understood from 5 years ago. Some of you are truly unteachable. The pipeline. Unbelievable.
you think it's a fact that one singular person is at fault for inflation?
There are some on this forum that think there is no inflation, that we are lucky because ours is low compared to other nations, that the policies of the current administration havn't made it worse, that the price of groceries and fuel aren't a by product of it, that it's justifiable because of X factors....I think they are all having a Biden cockmeat sandwich.
and there are some that blame inflation on the cancelation of an infrastructure project that hadn't even started yet
He's not the one trying to reference data from 2+ years ago to explain what is occurring today.
They didn't wait for that, they have capitalized on the supply chain issues that caused prices to soar by keeping prices higher now that most of those have been resolved.
Who is saying they just became greedy? The point being missed by you and others is that their ability to capitalize on their greed to a greater extent than in the past is one of the big contributors to inflation.
The quantitative easing did not result in big inflation though. The supply chain issues due to Covid was the direct cause of large price increases.
No. It starts and ends with consumers continuing to buy when prices increase.
I'm smart enough not to reference inferences from 2+ years ago to explain what is happening currently.
You would have seen a severe recession, if not depression, instead. I, for one, prefer paying more for the goods I purchase today rather than having had my portfolio wiped out.
Why didn't that happen in 2008?
Well then, who is? Because every single word in the first two posts of this thread was cut and pasted directly from Matt Egan’s column on CNN’s website.
JB was practically begging the Middle East and Venezuela for shitty product. By shooting down the pipeline it cost thousands of jobs and the ability to produce our own fuel to be self sufficient. When big balls states no more drilling, what do you think he is saying?
LOL - this is a stretch even for you.
"self sufficient"..."our own fuel"
WTF are you talking about? The US is producing more oil than they ever have. The construction jobs that would have been created are more than compensated for with the construction projects making chip factories and other critical infrastructure.
Nope, I don't need all of your words to know fuel is costing more than it should and definitely more than the previous administration.
i dont' think anyone argues that...it's the "why" those things are true
Ha! I never saw it because he’s been on ignore for a long time. Looks like you can see why.
His two replies to me in this thread are not just the dumbest words I’ve seen posted on HORT, but quite possibly the dumbest words I’ve ever seen posted on any internet message board.
We’re not going anywhere. You’re an absolute fvcking moron and that’s all there is to say.
Don’t even have to look back to know who you’re talking about. Just wait until you see him arguing with somebody who actually agrees with him, because he misread something. Pure gold.
