On November 2, 2020, it was noted that, “the U.S. average regular gasoline retail price decreased more than 3 cents to $2.11 per gallon on November 2, 49 cents lower than the same time last year.” The East Coast price decreased more than 2 cents to $2.07 per gallon, also, the Gulf Coast price decreased almost by 5 cents $1.79 per gallon. The Midwest price decreased more than 4 cents to $1.97 per gallon, the West Coast price declined greater than 1 cent to $2.77 per gallon and the Rocky Mountain price decreased more than 2 cents to $2.22 per gallon.

December – Highest gas price on Christmas Day ever recorded

To round out the year, 2021 set a new record for the highest gas price ever recorded on Christmas Day. By about two-tenths of a penny, at $3.26 per gallon, the national average on Christmas Day surpassed the previous record set in 2013.

------------

I just got gas yesterday at $3.89 a gallon. The price of gas has obviously increased since Putin's invasion of Ukraine but to blame the high prices entirely on the Ukraine invasion and the supply of Russian oil isn't correct.
All anyone has to do is look at the time line to see when the increase of gas, and oil, to know that the current administrations policies on fossil fuels has cause a dramatic affect on prices. The policies also can be seen in the cost of natural gas prices.
The people who are suffering the most are middle and lower income people, the people Democrats say that ONLY THEY care about. Limousine and Learjet leftist "liberals" can absorb the cost of higher energy prices with little to no impact on their life styles.....the same can't be said for middle and lower income people.

just an observation here:
aint it interesting that we have not had prices this high since Oboma was in office.
I can remember paying up to 4.75 a gallon back then right after Al gore helped de-regulate fuel prices.

and now we are paying that and more for it.
that is not a co-incidence it is a pattern of policy.

Psaki said there are 9,000 approved oil leases that the oil companies are not tapping into currently.
Psaki has since said that there are 9,000 unused drilling permits.
Which is it? Are there 9,000 approved oil leases or 9,000 unused drilling permits? I don't know if she is conflating oil leases and drilling permits, if she doesn't understand they are different or if she can't remember what talking points she is supposed to regurgitate. She has also said that Biden is doing everything he can regarding oil and gas prices but he has done nothing to reverse his policies that actually increased oil and gas prices.

Here is a look at drilling permits issued by the Bureau of Land Management in 2020 and 2021.
The BLM issued 2,994 public lands drilling permits in New Mexico, the most productive oil state, in 2020 compared to 1,949 as of Nov. 30, 2021. The boarder look for the six most productive states—New Mexico, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, North Dakota and California there were 3,605 permits had been approved in 2021 as of Nov. 30, far fewer than 5,362 in 2020.

Mike Sommers, the chief executive officer of the American Petroleum Institute put things in perspective by saying the following.
“There’s a fundamental misunderstanding of the administration as to how the process actually works,”....“Just because you have a lease doesn’t mean there’s actually oil and gas in that lease, and there has to be a lot of development that occurs between the leasing and then ultimately permitting for that acreage to be productive,” he said. “I think that they’re purposefully misusing the facts here to advantage their position.”

mean while we are still pumping roughly 2.5 thousand barrels less per day then we were prior to biden taking office from the wells that are already capable of supplying the oil we need.
these are existing wells, not undeveloped permitted sites, that were shut down by joe Bidens green energy council. rather then be allowed to continue to supply US oil. to the US.

The decline in oil production is mostly due to effects of COVID-19, and the oil industry is still sitting on thousands of drilling permits on federal land and countless more on private & state land. Even if we're down by 2.5 thousand barrels/day, that's not even a rounding error of the 11 million barrels/day produced. I don't know why you're crying about oil production under Biden when he's done more in his first year for it than Trump did in his first year. The US is still a net exporter of oil and likely to increase over 2022 and '23 to record levels.

If biden has done so much, then why is his job approval numbers circling the drain?

LMAO, … The decline in oil production in the US is because of Joe Biden’s foolish policy to end our dependence on fossil fuels. He’s so far out of touch with real world situations. This guy is a hinderance to the US getting back on the right track.

It's true that there was more oil produced in the US during Biden's first year than during Trump's first year.

But that is LARGELY due to Trump's administration having to roll back rules and regulations in order to incentivize oil companies to increase production......and it took time for Biden's administrations policies to be enacted.

If people look at 2020 and 2021 it's IMPOSSIBLE NOT to see the differences caused by Biden's policies, unless of coarse you are nonsensical zealot who refuses to see the TRUTH.

Gaslighting and blaming EVERYONE ELSE by Biden, Psaki,Democrats, leftist, the MSM, etc. for EVERY problem since Biden took office isn't really working anymore with MOST Americans.....not ONLY with oil but also with inflation, especially regarding food prices.

oil production was classified as an essential industry , and there by not effected by the covid shut downs.
demand dropped off. but so did oil imports. domestic production for fuels was still intact, which is why more oil was being produced bidens first year.. but it dropped off after biden put his policies inplace, reducing domestic out put,infavor of increased importation. this was a campaigned promise he made to the environmental left while he was running for presedent. that when picked up on, he and harris openly deigned, while privately still supported and was caught speaking about cutting fossil fuels multiple times prior to being elected, and made clear once taking office .

now, about trumps first year... which is it??
trump rolling back Clinton and Obama era regulations on oil production destroying environmental protections they put in place.. as was the out cry.

or trump didnt immediately start the process of making oil more readily available? for his big oil buddies
you cant have it both ways.
if the US was producing millions of bbls a day. we would be independent. dont confuse what we use with what we produce.
