Nice redirect there. I don’t care as much about the Russian pipeline as a do the loss of jobs and safer transport of our own oil in N.A. Also, glad to see you care more about the big business and their investors than the peon tax payer who is forking over 35-40% more at the pump than they were 6 months ago. Price is a carton of eggs, gallon of milk, or loaf of bread has gone up. However, this is no big deal since the government is paying people 21% more than average household income to stay home. Hospitality workers are demanding a minimum of $20/hour to go back to work. I thought the magic number was $15?
Face it, America is in worse shape than it ever was under Trump.
Biden has done nothing but sell out America. But then that's why you like him.

The price you are paying at the pump has nothing to do with Keystone. It has to do with the price of oil cratering in 2020 causing oil companies to stop producing most of their rigs. These companies took on lots of debt under Trump because their oil become unprofitable at the low price the market would pay. Now these same companies with weak balance sheets have been slow to bring those rigs back online, wanting to make sure that oil prices aren’t just going to crater again. When you couple that supply dynamic with a booming economy demanding oil, you will get an increase in price. If you want to blame Biden for the booming economy that is causing the surge in demand, ok, I guess.
Those are facts.
As to the rest of inflation, there are various causes, but really has nothing to do with Biden.
You really would have to go industry by industry to understand exactly what is causing the price increases, but most of it boils down to 2 similar factors:
1. Supply chains being restored where suppliers cannot meet the surging demand, and
2. Consumers sitting on much higher savings from spending less during the pandemic and having stimulus checks.
BS…Biden/Harris are inflation monsters! Period!!
Such long term damaging stupidity!

I didn’t tie Keystone to our price at the pump. I simply related the fact that losing those jobs and millions of other jobs that remain unfilled is not helping. But I will agree with you. The artificially built up economy is causing problems with prices at the cash register. Paying people more money we don’t have to stay home is hurting us now and it will hurt our children and grandchildren even worse.
You didn’t address my other point. The magic number was $15. Why are hospitality workers demanding $20 to come back to work? It’s because they are being paid far more than this fairy tale living wage to stay home. People have been conditioned to be happier when being babysat than to get out there an accomplish something on their own.
Multiple outlets(no I won’t go look it up for you)played recorded interviews with hotel management and ownership from various parts of the country. They all said that they were having trouble filling positions for custodial staff. People were demanding $20/hour to wash sheets and towels.
Exactly, there should not be a federally mandated minimum at all. I know plenty of families that have a good life and live within their means and neither spouse makes $20/hour. And they started at $10/hour. Also, as I have said before, adults have to make hard choices. A barista in New York may have to be content having 3 roommates in order to afford living in the city in an apartment that runs $3800/month. Or they can get the necessary education or learn the required skills to move out of that job and into something better.
