Biden's Blame Game
Oil is up at $118.00 but Biden is hell-bent on creating higher inflation and higher costs to cover his failed economic policies.
Biden Blasts Ocean Carriers as Congress Readies Tougher Shipping Regulations
The first major overhaul of maritime rules in 24 years follows skyrocketing freight rates and severe supply-chain disruptions
You Have the Audacity to Tell Us the Economy is Doing Great?
Of course he does. That's what he's paid for.
President Biden highlighted the issue this week, calling on Congress to “crack down” on ocean carriers. Mr. Biden, a Democrat, said in a video Thursday that one of the main reasons shipping costs have gone up is because nine ocean carriers control the trans-Pacific market and “have raised their prices by as much as 1,000%.”
Speaking Friday at the Port of Los Angeles, Mr. Biden said it was time to let the ocean shipping lines know that “the rip-off is over.”
“One of the key ways to fight inflation is by lowering the cost of moving goods through the supply chain,” he said.

Open Letter from a Truck Driver:
I need to get something off my chest… I generally refrain from talking politics, and especially making political posts, however I need to say this.
What I’m going to post is real, not somebody that a friend’s, cousin’s, sister’s, neighbor has happening to them…
I own a small trucking company, and this is what the fuel crisis is doing to our country… so this directly affects me, you, our children, our country.
Today I filled up my truck to deliver products that help keep our country fed. When I filled up my truck, it cost me $1,149.50. This is ONE truck, for ONE day of fuel. I own three. So for one day of operation, it’s costing me $3,448.50. (Yes, we use a full tank of fuel every single day, sometimes more than 1 tank per day)
My trucks generally run 5-6 days a week, so we’ll just estimate on the low side and say 5. That’s $17,242.50. Last week was over $20k for ONE week, that I have to pay out of my pocket to try and keep not only my children fed, but those of my employees, and our country.
Mark my words, we are on a downhill slide to the worst recession our country has ever seen. If you don’t believe me, I implore you to do your research.
Trucking companies are going under left and right. (Literally hundreds weekly) If you’re not aware, what you’re wearing, what you’re eating, what you’re living in, what you’re driving, what you’re reading this on, was delivered by a truck.
If something drastic doesn’t change in the next few weeks/months, I promise you, you’ll see empty shelves everywhere you look. You’ll see chaos as people fight for the basic necessities of everyday life. Food, medicine, etc...
If something doesn’t change, I pray that all of you have the ability, knowledge, and skills to fend for yourselves. Not only against those who would do you or your family harm, but to be able to find sustainable food and water.
This is a scary time. Not only for small business owners, but every single American.
So please, please do your research when we vote for those we place in power. This isn’t just on the federal level, but on the state levels as well. We have got to start making informed decision based on fact. Not because the media says we should like/dislike somebody.
Truck drivers are out here going for broke, holding onto something we know this country needs.
So if you know a truck driver, please tell them to hold on as long as they can. Our country won’t survive without them…

Saudis getting richer while Americans are getting poorer. Seems to be okay with Washington.
And here's the idiot who raped the economy of its assets.
Please take note of the date of this video - January 27, 2021. Anyone who thinks the Ukraine debacle is responsible for oil prices, think again. Ukraine war started in March 2022. See Oil Price Chart below.

As the Country Struggles to Pay for Gas and Feed their Kids, Here's How Your President Screwed You Over - Again
The Biden administration announces they're taking over half the national petroleum reserve in Alaska off the table for any kind of development. Cancels the Cook Inlet gas reserve gas and oil leases. No reason given - other than he's getting paid off by outside interests to rob this country of its assets. Bet his bank accounts in China a swollen to the gills. Scroll to 1:22
