Of course there are.   Obama/Biden blocked/cancelled the Keystone pipeline for example.   

That doesn’t have any effect on the economy under Biden

Oh look another ignorant take by Earl. Big surprise.

The oil still gets down there, it's just by rail owned by Warren Buffet. It's a lot slower transportation. He's the reason the keystone pipeline didn't get built.

That part of the keystone pipeline wouldn’t be operational today, or for years, even if Biden had given it a green light. 
 

Also, the canceled portion of the keystone pipeline merely made it easier for oil companies to export oil. The XL pipeline wasn’t designed to get oil to Midwest refineries that would be purposed for US use. It was intended to send oil to gulf refineries that could then be exported to other countries.

 

Further, the endangerment of the Ogallala Aquifer is a far bigger economic risk than not building the XL pipeline.

Had the project kept moving forward, the Keystone XL pipeline was supposed to be completed sometime in 2023.  
 

I’d be interested to hear an explanation of how an unfinished and non-operational pipeline would have provided a solution in the current oil market.

He was right to do so

 

And as headhunter pointed out, the oil still gets there via rail

This is by far the biggest issue concerning the pipeline but conservatives don't give a fuck about endangering a huge source of potable water supply.

 

Fucking simpletons.

13 million barrels before pandemic 

Odd thing to point out, since 13 is more than 12.  Everything I've seen is high 12s, which oddly enough, is still more than 12.   

Still, it's not something you should celebrate by a higher number.  You are literally pointing out the capacity they could produce if they wanted to.

Keystone XL has nothing to do with prices right now.  Perhaps in the future, when it was due to be completed, but not currently.  

Let me explain it in a way you can understand.  There's a bunch of unfertilized eggs laying around.  They have 0 value to you if sperm can't get to them.  Think of a pipeline that isn't finished yet as a dick that isn't working yet.  No sperm (no oil) means no value.

Let me explain it since you don't read too well.   Obama blocked it by preventing the dick from penetrating.   If he hadn't then it would have been grown up by now.   That is unless the Democrats found a way to abort it.

following this terrible analogy, you wouldn't give a shit about the pipeline after it was "born" anyway so your point is moot.

Why should we allow a pipeline that exports oil to endanger the Ogallala aquifer? Clean water is more important than oil.

What policies has Biden enacted to reduce global inflation?

 

This is the better argument. Not that there's necessarily a great answer one way or the other. But policy for three things is more about responses and adaptation, not genesis.

Historically the market has done better under Dems

 

 

 

Not only that, the market was only high in the latter part of Trump's term because they pumped billions into it. It was funny money. And I guarantee that there would have been another stimulus if Republicans were in charge because the Democrats would have helped them pass it. Again. But because Democrats are in charge, stimulus is done.

 

Republicans are standing in the way of stimulus to keep this market artificially high. But sure, blame Democrats.
