    Its "our" oil, so we all need to pay more at the pump?

    You don't understand supply and demand.

    I'm sure they will go down.

    Thats the entire point of doing this, its just a stupid way of achieving that goal.

    The government fees on oil leases is negligible compared to the cost of an oil platform.

    When liberal policies have negative repercussions, double down. Always.

    Seems like we’re already paying more before this hike in our profits.
    Lol communism is 18% but 12% is capitalism?

    Your low acuity premise to duck the intentional increase in energy costs as a payback to the watermelon energy interests will not dissuade me.

    What color is a watermelon on the outside?

    How about the inside?

    Best profit in years but you’ll play the role of boot licker for them to keep making massive profits off OUR oil. You think if we cut it to 2% they’ll finally lower prices? Or just make even more money off our oil?

    Some people will lick boot till their tongue turns black, if they think it'll let them attack those they don't like.

    Your commie dogma is coming out of the closet.

    I just want cheaper EVERYTHING FOR EVERYONE, so they can do more for themselves and their family.

    This extends to govt regulations including taxation.

    Screw your profit margins the govt makes more on a gallon of gas than the evil corporations.

    If you really wanted to help people you'd make energy cheap.

    But you aren't here for that, you are here to punish corporations.

    Take your bs back to moscow.

    Nope. I started a thread to show that Biden has assured everyone will pay more for everything on top of inflation.

    Kids in Japan can figure this out.

    We are paying more because of Bidens cuts to the energy sector, so therefore its OK for Biden to raise the price even more?

    Take it back to Stalingrad.

    Getting an actual imbecile! Big win.

    The reason the Saudi’s won’t increase production because they are saving up until Brandon drops Iran’s sanctions and the oil prices will come down. Brandon the imbecile is a great friend of our enemies and an enemy of the American people.

    You know that the US does not set the price for oil right ? You know it is set by OPEC, and that we sell our oil on the open market right, at their set price right ? This cuts into the profits of the oil companies, but will have minimal effect on gas prices.

    You know that decreased production increases prices right?

    Can you think of a limp wristed cone licker who has decreased production?

    Hope everyone you know pays more forever, because you care so much.

    No it doesnt. OPEC sets the price, and we sell our oil on the open market.

    Funny how you supported Trump when he got OPEC to decrease production by 10 million barrels per day (or approx 10% of GLOBAL production). When Trump did that it was “good for gas prices”.

    FFS man, What Biden is doing will have ZERO impact on gas prices. I know those of you on the right have almost been having an aneurism complaining about gas prices, and you still are, yet today prices went down where I live. Thanks Joe ;)

    Going up because they knew he would cut production, which he did.

    If the prices go down it won't be because of anything Brandon did.
