In a Democratic primary debate, he declared, “No more subsidies for the fossil fuel industry. No more drilling, including offshore. No ability for the oil industry to continue to drill, period. It ends.”
High gas prices are all part of his plan.
The other day, now-President Biden insisted that his administration had done nothing to raise prices or restrict drilling.

The Biden administration’s posture has been squarely against the oil and gas industry, which has fostered uncertainty in the market and disincentivized further investment. I
