Biden Would Increase Energy Costs for Americans

CFP:

Presidential candidate Joseph Biden describes the Green New Deal espoused by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other Democrats as a “crucial framework” for his climate plan. Biden proposes a carbon tax on fossil fuels, which will be detrimental to America’s world-leading oil and natural gas production and continue to destroy America’s coal industry. Now that America is energy independent for the first time in 75 years, Biden proposes to return America’s energy production to oblivion, thereby affecting our national security, making the United States again dependent on Middle East oil. His new energy taxes would increase prices at the gasoline pump and raise utility bills, hurting American families just when President Trump has lowered taxes and produced a prosperous economy before the coronavirus pandemic hit.

Clearly, Biden’s energy and climate plans would set American energy production back decades and other countries would reap the benefits—China, Russia, and Saudi Arabia to name a few. China is building new coal plants to spur its economy to recovery from the coronavirus pandemic. With U.S. preeminence reduced, Saudi Arabia and Russia will raise billions for their budgets with their exports of oil and gas. The United States would be the sole loser, as is recognized by President Trump’s energy dominance platform.

Biden’s Climate Plan

According to his website, Biden will:

“Establish an enforcement mechanism to achieve net-zero emissions no later than 2050, including a target no later than the end of President Biden’s first term in 2025 to ensure we get to the finish line. This enforcement mechanism will be based on the principles that polluters must bear the full cost of the carbon pollution they are emitting and that our economy must achieve ambitious reductions in emissions economy-wide instead of having just a few sectors carry the burden of change. The enforcement mechanism will achieve clear, legally-binding emissions reductions with environmental integrity.”

  1. B_B: He wouldn’t. He would not be in control to do anything. The people pulling Biden’s strings would be the ones to do all that — which is why they are pushing him right now.

    However, I am still not sure that he will be the candidate.

  2. All this and more. Where do the democrats think the money is going to come from to pay for all these new taxes and fees? Surely not the American people, as there will be no jobs. Really thinking this through, aren’t they?

  3. What a fool!! The climate got by for 4.5 billion years without any help from Joe Biden or anybody else. Anybody that thinks we can control the climate has to be classified as arrogantly ignorant.

  4. Label this unintended consequences.

    Speaken of gun sales. We stopped manufacturing AR platform guns after several California gun laws passed that took the joy out of it. That and when Trump was elected demand fell to zero. Plus the military work has had us slammed. The gun boom that’s recently been taking place has been all hand cannons. Until last week. I’ve had gun stores I’ve never even heard of calling and begging for AR’s. I attribute it to one picture. The picture of The McCloskeys holding off an angry mob with Gods gun. An AR15. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, well there you have it. Iconic. Let’s see them ban them now.

    I get it, but why did the St Louis couple surrender them willingly? I am not familiar with that states gun law’s, but they should have hired a lawyer before handing the firearm over. The 2nd Amendment is being destroyed little by little, one firearm at a time.

  6. Miss Kitty- They’ll get them back when the show trial is over. It’s just The DA is a cunt and 3/4. Soros ownership.

    Plus the DA opened her trap and called them criminals and wants to jail them for this and that. You never do that because you look prejudiced against the defendants before an investigation, and DA knows it. She opened her yap the second she found out about it on youtube. So it will go nowhere. Maybe a fine. Who knows. If I were the McCloskeys, I would sue the county and state for the harassment, and then some.

    Not many people want to die. I wouldn’t be surprised if the bitch DA had the SWAT team she hates so much parked around the corner. But MJA is right on the money. This trial will be an embarrassment. That states a castle doctrine state that is very protective of defending your property. There’s video of the BLM clowns threatening these people. There’s great photos of the gate they destroyed to gain access. It’s not enough for them to win the case though. They need to go after this bitch DA like no other.

  8. Turdeau did!

    It’s great!

    Toronto Stock Exchange: -1% despite massive fiscal stimulus

    US Nasdaq: +36%

    Guess who I’m betting on for the future and have been all along.

  9. Biden’s just following Oblowme’s lead, remember when the clown proclaimed ‘your energy prices will skyrocket’ as he attacked the energy industry.

  10. George Soros will dictate Biden’s running mate.
    No one expects retard Joe to live very long
    afterwards should he be elected.

    Watch who they pick.
    They’re trying to WILL who the
    next POTUS will be.

  11. For me, at the peak of the Obama Years war on oil, I was paying close to $600 a month for the privilege of driving to work. Prior to Covid work from home, I was down to about $160 a month.

    So Biden wants to raise my taxes by at least $5k per year and that is only on the fuel front. Of course, that is the Democrats’ Matrix-like goal: to suckle off the productive members of society to support criminals, deadbeats and illegals.
