While I agree with almost everything you say, I humbly disagree about fracking and oil drilling.audiophile wrote: ↑Tue Mar 17, 2020 9:04 amBiden hit back hard on Bernie for single payer, saying how's it working in Italy where they have to pick living and dying based the number of ventilators. Ouch!
If you work for the big three you can never vote for either of these jokers. CAFE standards through the roof. All drilling and fracking stopped. Paris climate accord. Higher energy taxes. High speed rail everywhere (doesn't work because of US population density too light).
I find irony that Bernie was ranting woman's right to her own body (pregnancy termination) then the next sentence speaking about saving lives with Covid-19. Would it make more sense to be prolife and save lives on both?
If we talking about rights like Bernie like to talk about, why can't we have right to assemble even if it is a risk? Bernie love for authoritarian regimes is also an obvious contradiction.
I would like to see North American oil reserves "saved" until the price of oil gets back up near $4.00 a gallon.
I'd like to stop domestic production to be honest, buy the cheap oil from overseas, and then when the pinch comes around again, (and it will) then ramp up production in the US and Canada.
And I'm also of the mind that consumers could keep the price of gas under $2.00 forever.
One slow down in consumption, even just a few percent, will cause a tremendous log jam of freighters waiting to unload.
If everyone just did the speed limit, that would save enough gas to cause the price of gas down under a buck in six months. The supply chain is that delicate.
The "logjams" in the supply chain is the reason they announce price increases. They got to get that product moving. They know if a price increase is announced, all the lemmings will run to the pump and fill up, alleviating the backup.
