More to the story than just Biden guy bad.
That all came before the pandemic hit. Energy demand plummeted through early 2020 as locked-down Americans cut back on driving and travel. Oil-futures prices even turned negative in April 2020, with traders effectively paying others to take planned barrel deliveries off their hands. Producers preparing to slow drilling suddenly found themselves in a shutdown.

Turning the lights back on hasn't been easy. Demand remained weak until spring 2021, when vaccine rollouts powered a surge in consumer spending and travel. Supply has been slow to respond. Crude production neared 11.7 million barrels a day in March, down more than 1 million barrels from the 2019 peak.

The uptrend has also been a bumpy one, as producers have been wary not to repeat the growth spree of the 2010s. Investors have continued to push profit protection over faster pumping, saying firms need to pay down debts from the prior boom. That's led to producers' free cash flow soaring amid rising prices, a typical sign that the industry is leaving cash on the table and needs to accelerate investment.

Supply-chain issues have also held the sector back from boosting production. Unique sand used for fracking is now in short supply, and prices have nearly tripled from where they stood just one year ago. That's further hobbled the industry that's crucial for matching supply with Americans' extraordinary demand.

Biden's letter to oil producers is a good laugh.

If I was Carter, I would send Biden a bucket of ice cream and some cones as an appreciation for being elected.

You repost a lot of dumb tweets, but that one is right up there with the dumbest of them. Inflation isn't an idealogy or caused by one. Inflation is caused by the money supply outstripping the supply of good and services. It doesn't matter what side of the political spectrum politicians are on. Only the government is in charge of money supply (i.e. they're the only ones who can print money legally). Who else, then, but government, would be responsible for inflation? :coffee:

Considering you're still convinced that our current inflation issues stem from actions George Bush took 20 years ago, I'm going to stick with my interpretation, thank you very much. :rofl:
