COME, LET US REASON TOGETHER
Do we trust liars because we are too lazy, or too afraid to learn the truth?
Our President, and prominent members, and officials of his administration want us to believe that Russia is the cause for our oil, and gas prices drastically rising.
They want us to completely ignore the fact that it was President Biden who gave this power to Russia in his very first week as President. They also lead us in ignoring the fact that under the policies of President Trump, America was energy independent, and America was a net exporter of energy.
In addition, the Biden Administration repeatedly accuses oil companies of profiteering, in the overpricing of their products. In this last week he has implied that the management of fuel retailers are also guilty of severely overpricing their goods. He completely ignores that most fuel retailers struggle to retain $0.03 per gallon of the now average gas price of over $5.00 per gallon, and that the federal tax is nearly $0.18, or six times the amount the retailer is able to secure.
Joe Biden wants us to consider oil tycoons, and fuel retailers unethical for their treatment of the petroleum consuming public, while considering the federal government as our guardian angel.
For the year 2021, the net oil industry profits amassed was 4.7%, while federal spending exploded to $6.82 trillion. Since the government spent more, ($6.82 T,) than it collected, ($4.05 T,) the deficit for 2021 was $2.77 trillion.

I just heard a clip of President Biden declaring publicly that our government IS GOING TO spend $100 billion on public transit, taking millions of cars off the road.
I have a couple of questions;
Which cars are they intending to remove from the road? Could your car, or my car be among them?
Where are they going to get this $100 billion? Since they spent $2.77 trillion more than their income for FY 2021, and have already drastically increased the rate of spending for FY 2022, and our economy has shrunken 1.5% in the last fiscal quarter. Where will this $100 billion come from?
(If you are curious about how any of these inconceivable fiscal gymnastics are even conceivable, please read my SubStack on, “Inflation.”)
We are choking the life out of the golden goose, and expecting an increase of golden eggs.
So let’s think about this soberly. Our government intends to spend money that it does not have, that it “collected” from we the tax payers, to develop mass transit to replace our present, personal transit options, (our cars & trucks.) Do you think that this will mean that these “masterminds” intend to run a train line, or a subway to your front door, or will your home be eliminated, and you be forced to relocate to where the food is, and the factories are?
You may say, how could anyone be stupid enough to make this claim? I assure you, it has been contemplated before, and it has been implemented before, to the destruction of millions of lives, in more than one nation. History, anyone? Consider Cuba, Venezuela, or Zimbabwe, to name a few.
You may think that I am making unreasonable accusations against our present administration, but I am just asking questions. What are we to think about a President who openly proclaimed that he will use our tax receipts, to remove our vehicles from use, and build an unrealistic mode of transportation to be a one-size-fits-all solution to the transportation problems of tomorrow’s America?
I believe that this is a problem for a new kind of American. For a new kind of solution. For a new kind of activism. I believe that it is time to Amend our Constitution to protect it, and us, from the marxist progression against our great national republic.
