What?!? It's literally what let us be energy independent. Look up how much oil and coal we were getting each year from federal lands and then come back and explain.

Only for NEW ventures, so if the past allowed us to be energy independent…new stuff isn’t necessary.

OPEC is a bunch of Saudi oil barons colluding to lower production to increase profits. It's the opposite of free market capitalism. It's called antitrust.

then the US should get off the world standard and nationalize it's oil or turn oil into a regulated utility.

Or better yet use oil at a minimum for petroleum based products and use other (renewable) forms of energy for transport and electric production.

And you owe me for all the health insurance premiums we still have to pay because for some reason, that's still a thing.
5 ups, 3y,

Yeah, alright thesis, I suppose you believe that in the name of health care being a "right", which it's not, that everyone's health care should be free. Unfortunately, that belief has a fundamental flaw, which is nobody has a right to the services and good of other human beings.

That sticky issue aside, who is going to pay me back for my health care premiums doubling from the time Obama care passed, until the time president Obama left office?

In spite of what you may think about Trump supporters, I watched the Obama care debates in congress and the media, and even though I was told my health care costs wouldn't go up (and who told me that?) any sane, reasonable person knew they would when Obama care passed. I didn't mind (and still don't, actually) paying more if doing so is going to help others who can't afford decent health care without a little bit of help.

What I didn't appreciate, was my health care costs doubling during the time frame I mentioned. Like I said, I'm happy to pay more to help out, but double?

No thanks. Got burned on that one... won't get burned again.

Republicans gutting the Affordable Care Act just because they hated Obama is why your premiums went up. Also Obamacare didn't even go into effect for a few years after it was signed and by then it was already watered down by republicans. So if your premiums doubled from the time it was passed it wasn't because of the ACA.
3 ups, 3y
Also Trumps replacement for Obamacare.

Oh wait.
1 up, 3y
Yeah, it was. You can't just pretend that I'm wrong, when I am absolutely solid on the time frame I referenced.

Plus, the so called "gutting" that you refer to happened *after* the time frame I referenced, once Trump took office. I had stopped keeping track of my increased health care costs by that time.

Bottom line, from the time Obama care started until the day he left office, my health care premiums doubled.

Your take on my post is very interesting. You read a post from a 2x Trump voter, who is more than willing to pay more in health care costs to help those less fortunate, and that's your take?
Based on a post like that, it's hard to argue with those who say liberals are tone deaf. Of course, it's an assumption on my part that you're a liberal, probably just as much as it would be for anyone to assume that a 2x Trump voter is a conservative. Trust me, Trump is no conservative. He had to pander to them the same way Dementia Joe has to pander to liberals. That's why I hate politics and especially politicians. But Trump is far less of a politician than a 47 year career do nothing like Dementia Joe.

The United States is the only developed country without universal healthcare.
It's also got the shittiest healthcare, and is probably the only Western country where you have to choose between bankruptcy and dying.

Cause some people don't want to stop for two hours every thirty miles. Did you know that the process to mine batteries for electric cars is more destructive to the environment than fuel-burning cars?

not anymore. manuf pollution payback is 2 years now. which car do you have to stop and charge every 30 miles? The lowest ones are 85. most people commute 40 miles a day, that means refilling every 2 days or topping off overnight while you sleep on a wall outlet.

what's wrong with used? there's no maintenance like a gas car.

Which Tesla is $200k ?

Also there are many other options. And will be more and lower priced ones coming. When electric cars are the norm many like you will will look back and laugh how you silly you were being.

The change in gas prices is due to an OPEC agreement to cut production. It has nothing to do with who is president.

"I've never seen a "President" screw up so much so fast".

You missed Trump's entire presidency then? No internet connection in your basement?

It's cool you've come up for some fresh air.
1 up, 3y
The fact that you can't recognize the many great things Trump did for this country, clearly indicates that your brain has been thoroughly washed by an unambiguously biased, Trump-hating media.

If a person was objective, even one who didn't like Trump, they would be able to recognize that had a Democrat done some of the things Trump did, they'd have supported those things.

Hell, I can't stand Dementia Joe, but he's done at least one (and maybe... two?) things so far that I've supported.

I didn't say it was his fault.

"Is that the worst thing you can come up with"?

I think you're a bit confused...
Maybe work on your reading comprehension?
