Why don't some of you people do a little research on the Keystone XL pipeline?The left is just defensive of Biden. Biden has hurt oil and gas production and therefore pricing. The oil and gas industry doesn't trust Biden as he is seen as unfriendly to those industries. He has levied harsh restrictions and threatens to do more. The oil leases that are currently not used are because of Bidens threats of harsh restrictions on them as we have already seen. Yeah the XL pipeline would take time to complete but he never should have ended it's construction. This current problem is always going to be something we have to ensure we have control of. He hurt oil/gas in favor of wind/solar but he didn't have the means and still doesn't, to replace the lost fossil fuels. He doesn't think things through on the long term. He's a fool.
What Is the Keystone XL Pipeline?

TransCanada received approval from the U.S. State department to build the Keystone XL pipeline. Here’s what it means for Canada.

the Keystone XL pipeline wouldn't have done anything to increase our gas supply.
I don't know of any " Restrictions " Biden has put on oil companies would you send us a link
He suspended granting leases of Federal lands for 6 months the courts OVER RULED him and he has now leased MORE acres of federal lands then any President in the last 50 years or more.
80 million acres in the Gulf alone
he did NOT put any restrictions on any of the land already leased to the oil companies they could do all the fracking and drilling they wanted on that land.
and there have been several oil and gas pipelines put back on line and Keystone line 5 is now being rebuilt
and it seems nobody on the right are saying a word about that
and do the people on the right actually believe we were ever energy independent?
YES we were a NET ENERGY EXPORTER OF PETROLEUM PRODUCTS but NOT energy independent
people don't seem to understand we still had to import 5 to 8 million barrels of Crude oil a day when we were a NET EXPORTER of energy
the petroleum products we were exporting were what the Government considers petroleum products made from not only crude oil but COAL , natural gas and other things.
so if we HAVE to import 5 to 8 million barrels of crude oil a day to cover the difference in crude oil we produce and what we use we are NOT energy INDEPENDENT
in Feb. 2020 we were producing almost 13 Million barrels a day and because of the Saudi and Russian price war the US producers went down to 9.7 million barrels a day , well the price war has been over for over a year and our oil producers are only producing 11.5 million barrels a day down over a million barrels a day and they are not in any rush to put those wells back on line as long as they are making money hand over fist
it is time our people and government start putting some pressure on them to put those wells back on line
Have a nice night
