I think I'd rather have a pizza hut than an oil rig. You made the wrong life choice, live with it.

 

Well that's the problem. My "life choice" was %100 historically stable, good as gold if one could achieve it. Captains (Sea) had been a lifelong, stable, career - until the psycho idealists decided their enemy was all the supporting industries of my career.

If they can do that to my career, they can do it to anyone's - and then tell them they made bad "life choices"..

I think they made bad life choices and that the day is coming whereby they pay the price for their inhumane ideology.

 

Darrel, that's an odd stance to take for a guy who is somewhat involved in fossil fuel burning motorcycles and the travel to places where you can do more riding on those motorcycles...which I know you do. I thought your earlier comment about this absolute goofball asst. secretary of health was tongue-in-cheek or sarcasm. Am I seeing that it's not the case?

And BTW...do away with enough of those oil rigs and you won't have a pizza hut...or a motorcycle...and to some degree...freedom. There is a realistic level of environmental responsibility, and there is insanity. We are seeing insanity.

 

No they did not lose access to 25% of the land. The 25% refers to the public land that is permitted for gas production - all land, not newly permitted land. Pure petroleum industry fiction.

Reuters News click here:No new leases. Seems the previous administration was handing them out like Halloween candy. Of course, too, there has been a glut of oil, if you look it up. Granted, low gas prices are great, but the reserves had been growing to near capacity, again according to some reliable world level news sources. When supply is greater than demand, what happens with jobs? There is more than enough for the growing economy as we hopefully reach stability in the face of Covid19. Again, Reuters (aka reliable) click here. So really new leases and permits are not a necessity.

Oh, and Reuters isn't CNN or FOX, not OAN or CNBC. Reuters is a global news agency maintaining unbiased news in an unbiased center manner, clearly unknown anymore in the U.S..

going to leave it at that...

 

Potato Potahto - Approx %25 of our oil producing land is no longer available for keeping America energy independent. Fracking shale does NOT produce a constant flow of oil - the volume of production ebbs continually, and does so quicker than the long gone, old school, reservoir tapping.. Thus, requiring constant new development (drilling) in order to keep supply and prices stabilized. The double whammy is the huge number of job losses when you "kill" %25 of an industry.. The inhuman ideologs may or may not know this stuff - but either way, they wouldn't care as they've decided oil n gas is against their religion.

This is why prices rose almost immediately when the dumbasses removed federal lands from future development. And will continue to rise as the supply ebbs due to their psychotic beliefs.

 

Ok look, I am not "blaming" those that put the psycho ideologs in positions of power, as those voters are, IMO, unknowing pawns - for instance, how many of said voters actually knew they were voting for $4 (plus) per gallon gasoline (and hundreds of unescorted youth crossing the border every day), when at the voting booth ? None did. Also, such peeps are only capable of spouting ideology and finding crap and junk to try to support their ideology - They are not worthy of a debate ( in my experience)..

Finding reliable, factual, information is nearly impossible. Every bit of it comes with an editorial that attempts to mind-f%^k the "user" regarding what the info should mean to them.. I only talk about subjects I know something about from personal experience - no "news outlet" tells me how data should be "digested".

I certainly don't mind pointing out the mindless, inhumane, sh$t that is happening now, due to their voting choice..

 

You guys ever hear of 'global warming'? You should all try reading other stuff other than moto magazines.
As alternative, try and present a leader that has more intelligence than a 2nd grader. ... and doesn't kill 500,000 people (it kinda relates to the first line, where most people are ignorant).

 

Wow!...just wow, Darrel! I was hoping you were doing a "Babylon Bee" parody kind of thing with these comments, but apparently you're serious. "A leader that has more intelligence than a 2nd grader"??? Biden should be in jail for mafia style money laundering...or...at least he should be in a rest home due to dementia.

"Leader"...he's no leader. He's a confused puppet who doesn't have a clue. Others are running the show. Our current leader gets pudding at the end of the day if he does what he's told. And speaking of killing 500,000 people, I can't imagine the total if Biden had been president. He condemned Trump for shutting down travel from China. I doubt the extreme push to get a vaccine would have occurred, and we'd still be waiting for it.

This thread needs to be shut down, as it's gone completely off the rails. But Darrel...you need to get a grip on the reality of what's going on. As to your "global warming" comment, read up on the history and science of "The Little Ice Age". It sheds a lot of light on climate change. "Climate change"...a reality but perhaps not in the light of the one being pushed for the purpose of political and economic power and control.

 

Good try TNC, but Darrel is beyond being reasoned with. He, like so many others, have become immersed in an "alternate reality". His reality is one where beliefs (ideology) is paramount, and the lines are clearly drawn (and constantly reinforced) between those labeled "friendly" and those that are labeled the "enemy", etc, etc.. His reality, as with some religions, see those "on the outside" as being heretics/infidels - and are treated as such. It is a sad fact that this ideology mind-f^&ks it's "members" to the point where anything is justified if it adheres to the beliefs of the "membership".. Such as rioting, looting, murdering, maiming, lawlessness, constitutional protections, etc.. Thoughtful compromise is non-existent with these peeps - it's their way or the highway.

It is more of a radical religion in it's functioning.

Best to let him/them be - they can't "cross over" enough to engage in intelligent discourse.
Feel sorry for them, don't bang your head on their brick wall..
