Hey OPEC

[Aug 11 (Reuters) - U.S. President Joe Biden's administration on Wednesday urged OPEC and its allies to boost oil output to tackle rising gasoline prices that they see as a threat to the global economic recovery.

The request reflects the White House's willingness to engage major world oil producers for more supply to help industry and consumers, even as it seeks the mantle of global leadership in the fight against climate change and discourages drilling at home.

Biden's national security adviser Jake Sullivan criticized big drilling nations, including Saudi Arabia, for what he said were insufficient crude production levels in the aftermath of the global COVID-19 pandemic.

"At a critical moment in the global recovery, this is simply not enough," Sullivan said in a statement.]

Well, it didn't take old senile joe very long to screw that up.

Re: Hey OPEC

So Biden screws up our energy independence and then asks foreign countries to bail him out for his causing gas price to rise.

And all those on the left that have complained about America being in the Middle East for oil go yea.

Re: Don't worry your little heads about the supply of oil, ....

... it was announced today that due to the resurgence of coronavirus demand for oil will again decline sharply for the foreseeable future. 

  You can thank DeSantis (& Abbott among others) for shutting down tourism before it even really got going.  Think of all the fuel we save when all those cruise ships stay tied up in Miami,  all the jet fuel saved with all the canceled flights,  all the gasoline saved by people "not" going to Florida this year.

Then why the heck is our dear leader begging OPEC to increase oil production.
