Analysis: Biden’s Proposed Tax on Oil, Natural Gas Will Cost Economy $9.1B, 90,000 Lost Jobs

Penny Starr 16 Sep 2021

President Joe Biden’s proposal to tax the oil and gas industries in the reconciliation bill would be costly to both the economy and in terms of job loss, an analysis by the American Petroleum Institute’s Energy Citizens initiative found.

“If implemented, the new tax could cost American jobs, increase costs for U.S. natural gas and oil, and outsource energy production – often to adversarial nations with less stringent environmental records,” the announcement of the analysis said.

The analysis found that the tax proposal would result in $9.1 billion in direct costs to the economy and could mean the loss of 90,000 American jobs.

I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Why don't we slap a tax on the jet fuel used by his climate czar Kerry?

Could net a lot of money.

I'm referring, of course, to Carter's windfall profits tax on the oil industry.  A tax so bad it wasn't enforced and was ultimately retroactively repealed.

We need not worry.  Big Government is the solution to the problems it creates.

They'll provide subsidies to the poor to pay for their more expensive utility bills  They'll provide training to the unemployed.  Everything will be okay because Big Government will take care of us and all our needs from dusk to dawn.

Big Government can do it all ... as long as there are other people's savings to confiscate.  Everything is "free" when you steal it.

And it seems more and more people in this country are right along with you on that.
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

When it comes to Pedo Joe Biden....  Philosophically it is tough to assign the most apt trait to this inept feckless piece of garbage.

1. Ultimate progenitor of the Law of Unintended Consequences?

or

2. Dictionary pic version of the Peter Principle in its most extreme?

We might as well start discussions, because Biden by far will be historically judged as the absolute worst POTUS in U.S. history.  And the way it is going, he might end up being the last POTUS in U.S history if the final 3 years and 4 months reflect the trend of his first 8 months.

I do have an issue with this.

Not because I'm offended by the "F" word or disagree with the message. But people attend stadiums to watch games and escape politics

That ship sailed years ago... the nfl is supporting BLM, players kneeling for the national anthem, playing the "black" national anthem instead of the American National Anthem..... Not me... glad to see people stand up..

Joe Biden rules as a tyrant, and knows full well what he is doing, ramming political correctness down America's and American's throats.  The horse laugh is those that think they are going to shame Biden and make him repent of his deeds.  You couldn't shame Hitler, Stalin,Mao, bill clinton, Obama, NEITHER WILL YOU JOE BIDEN!
