The tanking of oil prices was not a domestic thing, but global.

The US could have shut down 0 things (impossible) and oil still would have tanked and global supply chains still shut down.

The US is one of the prolific oil consumers, shutting us down alone did have a significant impact on production. It is not completely the current administrations fault but they did multiple things to exacerbate it to the point of ridiculousness. You not being able to acknowledge this is a bit frustrating, but no one relies on you for intelligence on this website.

What you are not comprehending is global supply chains would have shut down no matter what, the price of oil would have collapsed no matter what.

Like you're repeating things that sound really good on fox news but do not live in tangible reality.

did multiple things to exacerbate it to the point of ridiculousness.

Like what?

shut down everything, cut domestic production of oil, antagonize Russia by blaming them for EVERYTHING, push green energy but do nothing worthwhile to implement it effectively to reduce the impact on the common man, etc. It's the difference between shooting back up to 2.50 a gallon as opposed to 4.00 a gallon (for now).

shut down everything,

What did Biden shut down, can you link me to the orders?

cut domestic production of oil,

Where and how? Because the federal land stuff never went through and the polling of the oil industry does not cite this.

antagonize Russia by blaming them for EVERYTHING,

What was Russia blamed for they were not guilty of, and gas priced were high before anything happened with Ukraine, correct?

push green energy but do nothing worthwhile to implement it effectively to reduce the impact on the common man,

In specific which green energy did Biden push that increased gas prices?

It's the difference between shooting back up to 2.50 a gallon as opposed to 4.00 a gallon (for now).

I mean it kind of just seems like you have a bunch of vague talking points you've never thought about.

Biden's party repeatedly shut down everything and made a big deal about.. First day in office biden shut down a pipeline and made it clear what they were doing. People still think Trump is a russian puppet. Biden's party is often know for shutting down things like nuclear power plants because they think it's evil or some shit.

Shut the frick up r-slur.

Most of the world shut down.

You said the Biden admin. What did the Biden admin shut down?

First day in office biden shut down a pipeline

What does keystone xl have to do with domestic prices?

People still think Trump is a russian puppet.

What does this have to do with anything being discussed and oil prices?

Biden's party is often know for shutting down things like nuclear power plants because they think it's evil or some shit.

What? Nuclear power plants aren't built in America because fossil fuel subsidies make them economically uncompetitive.

Are you not American?

Shut the frick up r-slur.

You just seem to not be American and have a very questionable understanding of how any of this stuff works.

God darn these are stupid points and I'm to employed to do this all day pizza I'll just start by stating the Nuclear produces 20% of our electrical output (or something similair) and you just stated that the us doesn't build it. The rest of your points are similarly stupid, and I'm worse off for believing you are a human.

No they're fact based points you have no response to.

This is true and not relevant to anything I said.

New nuclear power plants are not built in America due to them being economically uncompetitive.

Anyone with a real interest in nuclear energy knows this.

You don't because you don't actually know anything about the topic and are just repeating talking points you heard on fox news.

I am actually pro nuclear energy and have argued for it often. Fossil subsidies remain the primary problem with building new plants.

The gop likes to play this game where they pretend they're pro nuclear energy despite enabling all of the policies that prevent it.

It's performative bullshit repeated by drones such as yourself with at best a surface level understanding of the topic.

For the final nail in the coffin of your ignorance:

https://www.vox.com/energy-and-environment/2019/9/6/20852313/december-democratic-debate-nuclear-power-energy

America’s nuclear plants are struggling to compete in wholesale power markets against cheaper natural gas and renewables. And they are shutting down: five have retired in the past five years and 12 reactors at nine plants have announced plans to retire ahead of schedule. If current trends in the power sector continue, more will shut down, either because their licenses are up or for economic reasons, in coming years.

Here's a study on this very subject written by pro nuclear scientists:

https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.1804655115

There is no reason to believe that any utility in the United States will build a new large reactor in the foreseeable future. These reactors have proven unaffordable and economically uncompetitive. In the few markets with the will to build them, they have proven to be unconstructible. The combination of political instruments and market developments that would render them attractive, such as investment and production credits, robust carbon pricing, and high natural gas costs, is unlikely to materialize soon.

So in closing, take your performative conservative "what about the nuclear" bullshit and shove it up your butt you demented fox news addled r-slur.

and you just stated that the us doesn't build it. The rest of your points are similarly stupid, and I'm worse off for believing you are a human

Dunning kruger sure is funny. Not as funny as your illiteracy and attempts to attack strawman arguments you do not understand though.
