Letter to the Editor

For most America, gas prices are now between $4 to $6 a gallon. Which one of the three men above is responsible for the increase in the cost of fuel? Biden claims it’s Putin’s fault. The United States of America was totally self-sufficient of all types of fuel during the last administration thanks to President Trump. This country did not import fuel from anywhere. Biden’s new regulations prevent oil production in this country today. Biden’s talking heads will tell you that there are over 9,000 oil drilling permits available today, true statement. What they don’t tell you is that it would be impossible to move the oil once drilled due to all of his new regulations. 

The first thing that Biden did when he took office was to stop the production of the Keystone pipeline, and in the process, he personally destroyed over 10,000 jobs of hard- working Americans. Biden then became dependent on oil imports from Russia. We went from self-contained America to Biden being dependent on a communist dictator for oil. 

Biden was paying Putin $74 million dollars daily for oil imports from Russia that this country once produced on its own. $74,000,000 daily goes a long way to financially support Putin’s war against Ukraine. 

Biden’s answer to the fuel crisis that we are facing today is to have Iran, Venezuela and Saudi Arabia increase oil production so he can start importing oil from them.

Biden would rather do business with foreign nations than to have the citizens of America working in the oil and mining industries? 

Biden could have been a hero for the USA and Europe had he not destroyed the fossil fuel industry in America. Putin has nothing to do with the fuel prices we are faced with today. 

One last thought and I will put it to you in a question. Why do you think God placed all of the energy resources that the United States of America will ever need under the ground on which this nation stands? 

So, who did you pick? My pick, Biden.
