Joe Biden Promises to End the Oil Industry

WFB:

Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden said Thursday he would aim to end the oil industry by transitioning completely to renewable energy.

Asked by President Donald Trump during Thursday night’s final presidential debate whether he would “close down the oil industry,” Biden said he would.

“I would transition from the oil industry, yes,” Biden said, adding that “the oil industry pollutes” and “has to be replaced by renewable energy over time.”

Biden added that he would end subsidies for the oil and gas industry. Trump called it “the biggest statement in terms of business” of the debate.

  1. The United States under President Trump became energy independent for the first time since the 1960s and turned the Middle East into a region that couldn’t blackmail us anymore. Now, the Dementiacrats want to return to the good old days of Jimmy Carter and Billy Clinton with a dose of AOC and Greta Thunberg adding the pixie dust. Great position to be taking looking while for votes in Pennsylvania, Oklahoma, Texas, Colorado and Montana. What a gift for the Republican candidates!

  4. So Joe wants to kill the Oil Industry. Not only would he put those employees out of work, but also employees of parts & equipment suppliers along with industries that provide services to them. Also how are his electric cars going to be built, since half of the vehicle is made from plastic & rubber, including the tires. The asphalt roads are made from oil as well. Not only would Joe kill the Oil Industry, but the industries that produce more than these 6,000 items as well (it’s a PDF file). Looks like Joe wants us to go back to living like the “Flintstones”.

  5. So who’s going to clean up all the horse shit if we’re forced to go back to horse and buggies for our main source of transportation? Anyone feel like going for a nice long walk to get anywhere like work if you still have a job. Maybe we should just name joey KILLER because he would kill and destroy our entire economy just to placate ma gaia.

  6. BIDENISM
    When someone say something for immediate attention and gratification, without thinking of the ramifications and deeper drastic repercussions it will have.

    Eg: Bidenism “$15 P/hr Min-Wage”.
    Equals an immediate 191.24% increase in ALL sold items and services in just the state of GA.

    Eg. Bidenism “eliminate the oil industry”.
    Equals killing 100’s of 1,000’s annually.
    Oil is used to made heart valves and other surgical implants.
    Use to make many drugs. All plastic media such as Oxygen, IV tubing is made from oil.

  7. WE need to be at the forefront of energy, especially when it is OUR OWN ENERGY!!
    If there is energy in the ground, someone is going to dig it up and use it and If it is on our soil, it must be US!
    China is increasingly owning more and more of the United States. China is looking to buy us up at pennies on the dollar, sold to them by disingenuous democRATs intentionally destroying our port cities. We are watching cities like New York and Seattle (and many others) reduced to rubble, people moving out and real estate values plumetting to fractions of what they were once worth. Who do you think is going to buy all that up???
    Well guess what? DemocRATs want to do the same thing to our energy industry in the name of “Global Warming” so that the ChiComs can come in and buy it up for pennies on the dollar!
    THIS MUST NOT HAPPEN!!

  8. They don’t intend to get rid all oil, just ours. They intend to regulate industry and scrape money off of everything made. Regulations regulations regulations, tax tax tax. Pay to play, it’s the Democrat way. Now coal on the other hand they would kill it, and are. See Oregon.

  9. I grew up literally within sight of the Spindletop Oil field in Southeast Texas. It was the birthplace of the modern oil industry. I worked in the petrochemical industry for thirty-five years making the chemicals and raw materials that make our standard of living possible. If Biden and the Democrats were ever successful in closing down the oil industry, we’d all be plunged into a world of poverty, joblessness, hunger, sickness and suffering. It makes everything that is pleasant about life possible. There isn’t a job or endeavor that isn’t related or dependent on oil and it’s by-products.

  10. Joe is an incompetent idiot,how on God’s earth does this inept f,ing fool think things are manufactured.
    Everything related to manufacturing needs oil,just like everything manufactured needs math (unless you are a grad social studies student that can pull amazing feats out of your ass).
    I have been an industrial mechanic for 45 years and have yet to see anything that can run without oil or that oil was absent from manufacturing.
    This line of thought from Joe should be called Mental Retardation.
