Inflation is surging across America, led by the exploding price of gasoline, which is at its highest price ever in many places. The average now is well over $4 a gallon, and in some places it’s $7, after Joe Biden took office with prices at $2.40. And the „pain“ that Americans are feeling is something that Democrats in Congress urged the oil industry to inflict just a matter of months ago. The Free Beacon reported that while Joe Biden’s White House claims it is doing „nothing“ to discourage oil companies from producing energy the nation needs, Democrats in Congress did just that. They, according to the report, „pressured oil executives to decrease outputs because of climate change, raising questions about the Democratic Party’s strategy to lower prices for consumers.“ „You can draw a direct line from how the Democrats marauded energy production yesterday to the unprecedented pain Americans are feeling at the pump today,“ CounterPoint Strategies president Jim McCarthy, a policy adviser for energy companies, explained in the report. It was just last October that the House Oversight and Reform Committee, run by Democrats, ordered the top officers for Exxon, BP, Shell, and Chevron to show up „to explain what steps they are taking to produce less oil and gas,“ the report said.
