Biden Bans drilling in the Gulf

One has to wonder why now? after 4 years in office. My idea is that he is trying to
keep energy prices high, which will keep prices high on everything. He knows Trump
will lower prices on energy by reduced regulations, and more drilling.

Biden does NOT want the people to see how easy it is for a POTUS to lower energy costs.
So by banning drilling in the gulf, he will slow Trump down, while making up reasons that
energy costs will eventually come down under Trump.

Newsom was able to throw another .45 cents per gallon tax on California gas, to keep his
gas prices high. Biden did not have enough time to do that.

There are multiple dimensions to the Biden energy policies. Look at what states are the oil producing or transfer states and their political leanings, and how undermining the economies of those states would affect elections there.

There is a common thread to Biden’s/Democrats border policies and energy policies: politics, and the authority to govern. Their goal is to get more people to vote Democrat and one way to do that is to undermine the economies of states that don’t vote Democrat.

They can also accomplish that by altering the formulas for apportioning members of congress. Remember, the US census counts EVERYONE, not just citizens, and that census determines how many members of congress each state gets, or don’t get. So where do illegal immigrants go once they cross the border? To sanctuary states and cities, where Democrats welcome them with open arms. For every million illegals they can lure the reward is one extra seat in congress.

So look at Biden’s energy and immigration policies … and the calendar. 5 years until the next census and 20 million illegals, and Biden drilling restrictions that may take years to reverse.
