The Stupid News Media

[pkveazey]

The Liberal News Media is hyping the non-partisan rush into spending 2 Trillion dollars on the COVID Bill. I knew the economic collapse was coming but this thing will cause the crash to come overnight. Then I'll have to listen to them piss and moan about how its all the Republican's fault. This kind of crap is getting really old and tired.

Biden climate actions to jolt electricity prices
Electricity prices are already going up because of the 'wasteful, duplicative solar and wind on our grid'
By Jonathan Garber, FOXBusiness

Electricity prices are set to “skyrocket” as President Biden steers the U.S. economy toward a green-energy agenda, according to experts.

Biden has pledged to achieve a net-zero electricity grid by 2035 and a net-zero economy by 2050.

Solar and wind make up a respective 1% and 3% of all U.S. energy, according to a report published last month by the U.S. Energy Information Administration. Coal, petroleum, and natural gas account for a combined 79% of U.S. energy.

The new president's Biden’s energy and climate plans are designed to “get coal-fired and natural gas-fired electricity prices high enough that then solar and wind become competitive,” said Gregory Wrightstone, executive director of the CO2 Coalition, which seeks to educate the public about the important contributions carbon dioxide makes to our lives and the economy.

Bwahahaha.... A water wheel won't cut it where I live down here in the flat lands. I've got a 10,000 watt gasoline generator and when the gas runs out I can switch over to my 5000 watt Solar array. If electricity gets too expensive, I'll just run on grid part of the day and off grid the rest of the day. That should leave them scratching their head and wondering why I don't use much electricity. If they really piss me off, I'll just double my Solar system and really screw them. Then there will be no Electricity bill and no utility taxes. Then I can give them one of these.

Has anybody seen fuel price hikes in your AO?

Gas has gone up 29¢ here, in NE PA since January 2, 2021. I suspect we will see $3.00 a gallon gas around my AO by Memorial Day weekend.

With that written, inflation is not that far behind. Why you might ask? Well do to transportation of products to your retailer. I predicted this in my 2021 predictions along with a whole host of other nasty things.

Elections have consequences - Former President Barak Obama

Economist Harry Dent has predicted a stock market correction within the next 45-days. A correction is usually between a 15-20 point drop. He is also on record predicting that there will be a major depression before the 2022 mid-term elections that will surpass the Great Depression of the early 1930's.

I suspect, that the depression is what will bring to fruition The Great Reset. Stay tuned.

Alaska's number on jobs creator is the oil industry and we've been hit really hard with the lose of jobs and soon to follow with be the smaller support businesses closing their doors because we no longer have the oil guys to support them.

People are leaving our state at an extremely fast rate and those who can afford to live here without much, if any income, are moving here. So far its a net loss of population.

Gas prices seem steady so far. They've been going up for about the past month as of Sunday they are around $2.50/gal.

EDIT: Just checked my gasbuddy app and prices are now up to $2.59-$2.64 - So much for being steady
