[Tweet] White House officials exploring sending Americans rebates cards to offset gas costs ran into another problem — the chips shortage, which meant US couldn’t physically produce enough cards to make the plan work even if lawmakers tried to do it (archive.ph)

What the commies failed to do in decades has taken Jao Bai Dumb less than 2 years.

White House ideas to combat high gas prices include:

  • Sending rebate cards to drivers to help them pay at gas stations

  • Invoking the Defense Production Act to move diesel and other refined products if localized shortages happen

  • Historic release of nation's oil reserves

  • A letter to US refineries calling for more production and criticizing their profits

  • Prodding the world's oil producers and coordinating the release from national reserves with U.S. allies

  • Potentially telling governors to lower or waive their gas taxes

  • Suspending the Jones Act, which would reduce shipping costs and make it cheaper to get gas from the Gulf Coast to the Eastern Seabord

  • Imposing price controls and banning exports of U.S. energy

“Not only is there not an extant solution, but nobody thinks there’s going to be a compelling solution,” an outside economic adviser to the White House said. “They’re fighting about narrative rather than fighting about substance, because realistically, what are they going to do?”

realistically, what are they going to do?

Where do they find these experts that are so retarded? The best time was over a year ago, but the second best time is now to approve pipelines, remove green regulations and allow drilling everywhere. That's not going to happen of course because they intentionally created this energy crisis to spur a miraculous transition to wind and solar.

Business as usual.

Shills, bots, Leftoids, trolls, etc. Take your pick.

Off the table: more domestic production. You know, what will actually solve the problem.

And yet not a single attempt to actually improve production in house, the one thing that would genuinely solve the crisis.

The plan to print more money to help with inflated prices. What a bunch of fucking morons. Cut taxes, stop spending money we don’t have like giving billions to foreign countries, and stop printing money. And let oil companies drill. Why has the west gotten to the point where we refuse to use our own natural resources.

Because we are ruled over by our enemies. All Western governments should be treated as hostile foreign occupiers, because they are.

The plan is to bankrupt the country. At that task they have been extremely proficient.

Not to comment on the bill itself, but that is a pretty flimsy excuse coming from any of those who are pushing it, considering they already managed to send everyone EFT direct deposits 3 times. They go out of their way to "try" and fail. One thing we have in common all over the spectrum is that we are being scammed by these people together due to our naivete and complacency

The incompetence continues to be absolutely staggering.

at what point does incompetence become treason?

Imagine having to be the guy who tells The Beast that he's out of Marks

Counterpoint: in the Bible it is suggested that the anti-Christ is competent. Is our government being incompetent evidence that we aren't in the End Times?

Definitely, but that's different than being in the age of the anti-Christ. At least that was how the churches I attended understood things; I realize opinions on this matter differ.
