The Democrat-led destruction of the economy 7

This thread is dedicated for news and information relating to Biden's destruction of the economy, both domestic and globally.
I feel this topic is important given the major pain and hurt that many American families are no doubt going through at this time.
I'll start with this article:
https://nypost.com/2022/05/23/biden-praises-gas-prices-as-part-of-incredible-transition/
Biden's quoted as saying:
“[When] it comes to the gas prices, we’re going through an incredible transition that is taking place that, God willing, when it’s over, we’ll be stronger and the world will be stronger and less reliant on fossil fuels when this is over,” Biden said during a press conference in Japan following his meeting with Prime Minister Fumio Kishida.
So, from Biden's comments, they make it very clear that they view higher gas prices as a good thing because it will apparently force Americans into switching to all electric vehicles. Furthermore, Biden has done everything in his power as president to hurt the oil & gas industry as much as he can.
But why? What do they hope to gain from this? Most Americans cannot afford to just randomly drop 70K on an electric vehicle. It's out of touch to even suggest that this is the answer. Moreover, the electricity required to charge EV's still comes largely from coal and gas. Also, let's be honest - the American middle class depends on the oil and gas industry for a lot of high paying jobs and getting rid of this industry will destroy many of them.
As great as it would be for the environment to make this transition, the infrastructure isn't in place and Americans will no longer have a steady supply of electricity if suddenly the switch is made without actually having enough renewable energy infrastructure in place. Americans will be facing electricity blackouts regularly if suddenly every coal power plant were to shutdown.
I'm not convinced that Biden or his administration actually cares about the environment, but rather that they have ulterior motives for pushing this agenda. What is their aim here? Why do they want Americans to be faced with electricity blackouts? What sense does it make to force Americans into EV's if the grid won't have sufficient power to charge all of them? What sense does it make to put people into a position where they can no longer afford their heating or electric bills?
Have these people gone insane?

Yes,they have gone insane. They are mad with power and its disgusting that the masses can't seem to or won't pull their heads out of their asses,group together and do something about it.
We need a complete overhaul of our governments and the only way that is going to happen is if normal people stop fighting over petty political topics and focus on getting rid of the greedy lying scum.

We're talking about the Biden that rents drilling land at significantly below market value and pumps about 15 Billion dollars in subsidies into the oil market, which is currently posting literally double profits compared to first quarter of last year (Exxon posted 5.5B Q122, 2.7BQ121).
The oil companies that have literally doubled their profit margins in the last year and posted record growth. Those are the guys "being destroyed by Biden's policies"?
Nah man. Oil companies are doing great. Because the GOP voted unanimously to allow price gouging. And so they gently slide their dick in your ass at the pump. My stock goes up. Oil is doing pretty good right now.

Now I get why our government is pushing inflation so hard:
Inflation is the fiscal complement of statism and arbitrary government. It is a cog in the complex of policies and institutions which gradually lead toward totalitarianism.

Inflation is how you keep the working class from collecting too much power. It's also a good cover story for the highest corporate profits in forever, based both on numbers and percentages.

Enough. I don't want to hear anything about wreckless spending. Biden changed people's lives !? Just print more moneys american bros. And send a few more billions to UKR to fight your sworn enemies. You should also start home imprisonment again. New fresh money + people being more productive at home + Ruskies getting rampaged by zelenski, + sanctions kicking in, what could possibly go wrong ? Life is good for Americans, true American dream.

NYpost?
I thought you said that everything MSM says is lies?
So since MSM is all lies then in reality Biden really wants super cheap gas and no electric vehicles? And Joe Biden is a Republican?
This is all so confusing!

Chop is a troll that advocates for Russia in their invasion of Ukraine. So you guys will probably meet in the middle on that. Of course Chop doesn't have a consistent or worthy viewpoint, outside of loving the Russian invasion and war I suppose. It's more an "America bad, Russia good" stance, but most of us here in the US aren't making Ukrainians fight, we aren't making Russia invade, and while there are obvious improprieties along the way I think most of us just want the fighting to end. No justification for war is good enough.

NYPost, along with daily mail, and breitbart, and infowars, etc. is one of those good rebel news sources that dares speak the truth. And occasionally appear to make up Biden quotes from thin air, because I don't see that in the transcripts.

No not everything. But a good number of things. Hope that clears up some of the confusion for you.
-------------------- I am in a minority on the shroomery, as I frequently defend the opposing side when they have a point about something or when my side make believes something about them. I also attack my side if I think they're wrong. People here get very confused by that and think it means I prefer the other side.

Crapopera is a troll that advocates for his personal supremacy over everybody else and will link to the same retarded "studies" over and over so long as it proves the one thing he cares about the most: pretending he is smarter than everybody else.

Why would I have to pretend when I supply actual sources? The weight of the evidence isn't even on me. I could be a total dolt and if I can assemble some evidence I still am better off than those without evidence.

So you guys think this frothing rage is a downstream reaction to the Jan 6th hearings? Or just a normal mental breakdown?

January 6th hearings? Those are happening right now?
Sorry, didn't notice 
On a serious note, anybody who actually watches that has got some serious issues. Hmm, how many of you does that include?

Hey man, I think you got some drool on your chin. Might wanna get that cleaned up buddy. Really detracts from the incoherent point you are trying to make.

I'd guess the latter, triggered by the Fox reaction to the former.
Trump blew up his somewhat decent legal defense of "I legitimately though that the election was stolen because I'm dumb" today, so...

Trumps rally the other day was straight golden shower, just like he enjoys. He is sweating it, not pee, but the hearings.
Nothing will come of it, but it is hilarious how dumb Trump is. Except for him being the dumbest president and people willing to suck his dick and totally not be gay.

Chopowman, I wish for us to sit down together, share the peace pipe, and reconcile with one another for our own well being & for the sake of the greater good of the shroomery’s political sub forum.
And so without further ado…
At times I have been rude. At times I have been borderline trolly. At times I have been cold. At times I have taunted. At times I have harbored ill will.
I now renounce those for the folly that they are.
Instead, what I can bring to the table instead is this -
I will compose my posts toward you by allowing the following 5 principles to be the tree from which they grow - and applying them in practice to all of our communiques henceforth. Breaking down the abbreviated form these guidelines are basic yet truly based:
T rue H onest I nspired N eccesary K ind
Please accept my humble apology. The truth is I love you and I do not want to fight or drag you down, I want us to be cooperative in all our dealings on the shroomery so that we are setting a good example by being one through living it and as can be recognized by what and how we post.
Rather the view our “opponents” as the “other”, See them as one’s own reflection, As oneself, as one’s brother, as one’s neighbor - As if all was being glimpaws through a mirror darkly.
Lastly, I currently hold a single chopstick in my grasp while writing this to show this is legit opportunity to do the right thing that will pay dividends in the future by helping to encourage discussions capable of positive growth. We have much to teach each other still and so much more to uncover together. So, let’s turn this subforum’s frown upside down!
What say you man !
-------------------- Give me Liberty caps -or- give me Death caps
