    The Biden Regime is not allowing them to do so on federal lands.

    Profits are not profit margins. A roughly 6-10% profit margin in this industry is not in the slightest bit "astronomical". It is actually quite typical. Oil companies ARE NOT "price gouging"... It just costs them MUCH more money to bring their product to market under the Biden Regime than it did under the Trump Admin.

    not unconstitutional, where does it say in the constitutions that government can not drill oil

    the Trump Regime lowered supply, now that demand has increased, big oil refuses to increase supply, thanks for the high gas prices Trump

    Sorry if the truth bothers you. Biden made a point to vilify big oil and now they won't work with him. If you can't figure it out, not much else is going to help you.

    The gov't is so stupid and inefficient, they would probably deny their own drilling permit app.

    No he didn't. In fact, there are threads on this site that show he has allowed gas and oil leases.

    How did Keystone XL promote cost savings when it hadn't even been started yet? As to oil drilling on public land:

    Higher under Biden than most of Trump's term.

    It is
    i have no intention whatsoever to reduce my gas consumption at all, not gasoline and not natural gas. No need to change just because elected and unelected leaders want us to. I live in a rural dominated area and have to drive to do what I need to do. Just cut back elsewhere and if less spending on other things triggers a recession, so be it. We know what we had and that we can get back to it. It’s time to fight a domestic economic war with this regime until we break it at the ballot box or it breaks us by brute force

    BS he hasn't had one lease sale, the courts FORCED him to abide by Trumps last lease sale. Bottom line you're dead wrong he has vilified and still is. The API sent him a 10pt plan (from the companies) that laid out how to lower gas cost and they're all reasonable. This Chevron exec didn't attack Biden personally, he laid out how the administration could change a few things and it would help. What does Biden do...He insults the guy saying he didn't know he was that soft/sensitive. This guy is an idiot, he called a meeting with all the big guys and personally offends them before the meeting that he's going to ask for a favor. This guy is dumber than dumb. You know is benefitting the most...PUTIN, he's laughing all the way to the bank. If Biden would have simply announced he's opening up the country for drilling starting tomorrow and reducing refinery regs, the market would flip immediately. Yea we know who's really PUTIN'S PUPPET. What a DA.

    Learn the difference between a permit and a lease sale. 1st President in 50 years not to have a single lease sale in his first 12 months.

    The government can’t manage oil. They can’t even manage leases for our benefit

    Oil field supplies far more jobs than that but good point. Drillers, Derrick hands, Floor hands, Motor hands, Technicians, Truck drivers, Welders, Heavy machinery operators and sales. This industry is a huge job maker.

    The only thing you’re wrong about is the government’s ability to do it more efficiently than the current industry.

    Yeah, I was being sarcastic in that response. I belong to a family of oil workers and pipeliners. No way could gov't take over and get it done more efficiently.

    Your source is either an idiot or confident that you are. Oil "firms don't do buybacks, they pay dividends. If Biden wants to end buybacks, he should just go after his" leftwing tech buddies that his WH coordinates censorship with.

    Biden isn't responsible for anything, the blame shifts to everyone else. That's how his administration has been running all along. There are consequences for his actions and his policies.
