During last night’s debate, Joe Biden warned “We’re about to go into a dark winter”.
Of course, any thinking person who has heard Biden’s commitment to shut down our fossil fuel industry,[coal, gas, oil and end fracking] which provides the fuel for our nation’s power plants that heat and light our homes, knows Biden’s warning could only be true if Biden is elected.
Another great reason to not vote for Biden, so that "dark winter’ will never come.

Joe Biden and Kamala Harris want elderly American citizens, who were forced to pay into Medicare all their lives, to surrender and share their Medicare Trust Fund with millions of foreigners who have invaded America’s borders. LINK

Obviously Biden means tragedy and failure as a result of the incompetent response of the Trump administrations Covid response, not the amount of lumens output. Lame attempt!

He’s ginning up panic about COVID.
So what else is new?

This is not true at all. It’s just another lie in the Democrat Party Platform, all they’ve got is their raging TDS! The audacity of Joe when he spouts his plan if he had been in charge is exactly what President did is truly astounding.

Life under Joe Biden’s green energy plan:

Life under Trump’s energy independence plan:

Not a very difficult decision to make.

The $4.27 a gallon was under President Bush.
$1.78 a gallon means 100,000 oil and gas jobs have been lost in the US just this year alone.

Don’t know how many times I’ve tried to explain people the dynamics of oil and gas prices, and how prices too low mean the industry is in trouble.
It doesn’t get through.

Arguing the price of oil is a losing proposition. However, a transition away from oil is inevitable, whether it is 20 years from now or 200 years from now. The extraction of oil on the human timeline from 5,000 BP to 5,000 years from now will be a blip.

But at least we’re an export nation now…
Wouldn’t we want super high gas prices so we make as much money as possible?

Typical liberal nonsense completely forgetting about the 7.19 gas under Obama.

I agree he was referring to the virus. I listened to Fauci today on the tube. He said that he fears we are going to see a lot of spikes as the cold weather sets in and folks move inside more. And he is also worried about the holidays where there will be more travel and families and friends will be getting together.
The one thing that we will (conceivably) always need oil for is materials. I agree it has a finite life as a transportation fuel, but even then it’s hard to duplicate the amount of concentrated solar energy in oil as an energy source.
I’m not super great at materials but there are just some things that can’t be synthesized. Mostly for marketing but I spent a couple years chasing vegetal polyols for castable polyurethanes (marketing driven so I could say look over here at this, filthy hippies!) but the performance just wasn’t there and the organic chemists I consulted with basically kept telling me “you can’t get there from here”.
To my line of thinking that’s oils true value is in materials. You can’t synthesize gasoline (Ok Fischer-Tropf process from coal which is wildly inefficient and uses coal) and a lot of super useful petrochemicals.
Yes, I’m sure Biden would have been running around without masks and telling everyone else they didn’t need them if he had been president. He’d also be scoffing the scientists who are trying to keep the levels of outbreak down. Good old Joe - just the same as Turmp.

Except that’s not what he intends to do, as he made very clear. He will phase out subsidies, over time.

With all sincerity, the only two realistic options which science now offers to “transition away from fossil fuels” and preserve our existing standard of living are hydrogen and nuclear power. Only nitwits and scientific illiterates believe such a transition can be made with wind, solar and hydropower. A number of our oil and gas companies are involved in some promising research to transition away from fossil fuels using hydrogen and nuclear power. But the path which Biden and his lunatic crowd preaches is a fool’s folly.
It’s a sad shame that the move to transition away from fossil fuels has been politicized, and useful idiots embrace these rope-a-dope politicians.
