From Energy Independence To Begging OPEC For Oil In 8 Months

This is a lot like the border disaster. Trump had the system humming; Biden wrecked it--largely because it was Trump's system. In each case, Biden also had progressive motives--progressives want more illegal aliens and less oil. Especially American oil. Goes like so: less oil > foreign oil > 'Merican oil. So, sure, we want to burn the oil anyway...but at least it's not American oil...
   Incentivize American production and restart the Keystone pipeline. For the love of God.
   The left isn't serious about this stuff. It's all just a primal REEEEE. Until they start lobbying for more nuclear plants (and more fracking for natural gas, actually) they're just not serious. 
   On the bright side, having come to realize that nobody--not even the left--takes any of this seriously, I'm finally going to go ahead and get that big-ass truck I've been wanting... Silver(ado?) lining FTW!
   Incidentally, I do think that we should take climate change seriously. That would mean, inter alia: ending the hysteria and addressing the challenge like adults. It would also mean: the left stops using climate change as a stalking-horse for their unrelated, long-standing policy preferences. And/including: socialism. 
   None of that's going to happen any time soon, though.
