Yeah, powered by coal, coal usage up 20% this year, first increase in 7 years. Libs... You guys just don't get it and your faith in government is sadly and badly misplaced.

Maybe if there wasn't a stranglehold on labour by the Longshoremans Union, we could get things moving faster

Biden's moratorium on new oil and gas leases on federal land does have a future impact on USA productin.

But it is pretty small.

Only 9 or 10 percent of domestic production comes from federal lands.

Domestic exploration and production on private lands is booming quite nicely.

When the administration talks about banning fracking do you think that may or may not have influence on investment?

They can talk all they want...it is not stopping.

Local governments can make that decision, and some have.

But most local governments are not going to cut off the tax boom they experience due to fracking.

Speaking locally, all the counties covered in the Texas Eagle Ford Shale territory have experienced an explosion of tax revenues over the past fifteen years or so. They are not going to shut that income stream down.

I am quite happy to pay the tax bill every year!

Please don’t mislead. The increase in due to price of natural gas and will be short lived. From you article

“” Coal, which accounted for about 20% of U.S electricity in 2020, is on track to generate roughly 24% of the nation's power this year, the Energy Information Administration predicted this week. That's largely because natural gas, coal's main competitor, has gotten pricier in the past year, the agency said.

And

Still, the spike in coal usage is likely to be short-lived, with the EIA expecting coal power to decline again next year.

...

"In the United States, coal is in decline — it's been declining rapidly for the past decade," said Lucas Davis, a professor at the University of California, Berkeley, who studies energy economics. "It's up this year, but even at this new, higher level, it's still half of what it was for 2010.

All those plants have been switched to NG those coal yards have been cleared off now have been used to pàrk semi tràilers an planted trees already

In your article there is no mention of California and their crazy "green" rules for trucks and how this is a big part of the supply chain problem.

The person who wrote the article is either inept or dishonest and trying to sell an agenda. When a big piece of the story is missing how can you trust anything else that person says?

The California Air Resources Board (CARB) is were you would go if you want to see how Calif has really screwed things up for small business. Fair warning, you need to have a lot of free time to read and digest all that crap we were forced to deal with.

Yes it. Ay have an impact on oil futures but not on today’s actual crude price.- which is based on pure supply and demand issues

Don't worry Dirt, the country will blame Biden.... Really matters little what the underlying causes are, Biden will get the blame and so will Alfred E. Neuman.

Democrats deserve the blame. The numb nut Dems in California passed laws that prohibit the older vehicles from entering the ports and within the state itself.
I wonder if the law violates the Commerce Clause?
