Why do Republicans think Biden controls gas prices? Do they not know that it's a private industry?
Does Biden also control the cost of Microsoft Windows? He should lower it.
He should also tell my doctor to charge less for an office visit. he controls that too, right?

You're either not very bright, or you're actually a Democrat running a whisper campaign to make Republicans seem like idiots.

again this is just some made up crap that you constantly say

i haven't seen a single post from anyone in this entire thread claiming that Biden has his finger over the gas price button

but his policies and rhetoric certainly does nothing to help offset or improve the rising prices. He is culpable in those regards.

And honestly, . . . don't act like you wouldn't be praising and crediting Biden with low fuel prices if they were soaring below prices during Trumps administration. Biden dont have many wins at all, people like you would definitely lean on it to boost him up as much as you are trying to defend and deflect his his poor policy and rhetoric that negatively impacts the current prices/industry

That doesn't explain the concept of god to me.

The condescending tone of your post suggested you know the concept of god, since you were able to state without hesitation that *I* don't know it.

Please explain the concept of god to me.

I did. It’s something you must find, and that’s God, and not god. Little g gods are not the same concept, so at least spell it correctly

You haven't been reading the thread long enough. There have been MANY instances of such claims. Thxone is a culprit if you want to see proof.

I've never praised or blamed any president for gas prices rising or falling, any more than I'd praise them or blame them for how much snow I have to shovel on a Monday morning. BUT, you can't have it both ways. Republicans can't say Trump had nothing to do with prices increasing during his admin, then blame Biden for this current mess. They can't laud Trump for great stock market gains, yet say Biden had nothing to do with the moves made when he became POTUS.

Pick a story, and stick with it.

I AM interested in his poor policy that "negatively affects the industry" (I'm assuming oil production) worldwide, and is causing high gas prices in England and other countries that have seen higher percentage increases than the US is experiencing (not just higher PRICES, higher increases).
Your evaluation?

I have been reading, and i have yet so see a post where anyone has claimed that Biden actually sets the fuel prices.

His bad policies on drilling leases and limiting domestic production has adverse affects no matter how much you try to argue against it. Companies factor in their future expectations and those affect decisions they make today. The expectation that supply will dry up effects cost TODAY!

The regulations Bidens administration has both proposed and implemented inflicted billions in direct financial costs and the indirect compliance costs are incalculable.... even further hindering expectations for the future. These companies are not going to lower prices today if they are bracing for a bleak outlook.

And overall, his anti energy rhetoric discourages investment. The signals coming from his policy makers absolutely affect long term investment decisions. Biden saying things like "We are going to get rid of fossil fuels. … We’re going to phase out fossil fuels" then moving forward with cancelling the pipeline, blocking leases, restricting imports and perusing more regulations doesn't exactly give investors the warm fuzzies

is all the blame on him? nope. . . but he owns his fair share of it no matter how much you try to defend him from it

You're tapdancing and evading the question/request.

Please explain the concept of God, god, god(s), god/s, or whatever other moniker or spelling of the moniker you choose to use.

Please explain it under the assumption I know nothing of the concept.

An easy example to find.:

I have never paid gas prices like these that were caused on purpose by our government. This is a shame and so many people were patting themselves on the back for voting for this guy. Now most of those voters are regretting their decisions. That's not my opinion, feelings or emotions on the facts... these are shown in actual polls. Damn shame this country has gotten where it is out of spite and ignorance.

You repeat "bad policies" with regards to drilling leases. I asked for the actual "bad policies". Simple repetition is not proof of the claim. Please provide the bad policy data or links to the policy info. Do you feel too many leases were approved, and that hurts the price of oil, or that too few lease were approved?

What are the "regulations" that Biden's admin implemented that are causing high prices worldwide? How do these regulations affect gas prices in the UK, and why have their prices risen on a similar but steeper trajectory than our prices?

If the "anti-energy rhetoric" is discouraging investment, why are market prices being driven up by speculators purchasing futures contracts?
This chart shows how futures contract pricing drives the cost of gasoline. If no one is investing, why are prices rising?

That's cute. I'd bet that's what you see when you try to read a book.
Why don't you join in the discussion instead? Tell us your views on what drives gas prices worldwide. No memes, no gifs, no links to someone else's views.
Do it quickly so we know you have an understanding in your mind.

Seems you don’t have any thoughts of your own, and willingly believe any meme you see.
“Our hero Biden”?
Wow. Wanna’ buy a bridge? It’s cheap!

Someone else has been arguing it for a day too.
Must be a loser.
Must be a guy who thinks the y in “you” is silent or pronounced as a vowel.
That guy must be “eyeoo” or “oo”.

Still going huh?
