Jay McKinsey + 1,490 June 3, 2022 1 minute ago, Ecocharger said: Your usual nonsense, Jay. The reality is that the strength of the fossil fuel markets is sustaining what is left of the American economy. Biden & Co. are planning huge taxes to try and bail out the government from its reckless spending binges. The stock market? Look at this, https://oilprice.com/Energy/Energy-General/How-Long-Will-The-Epic-Rally-In-Energy-Stocks-Last.html And Goldman predicts that Goldman Sachs predicts the surplus will rein in the skyrocketing cost of battery metals. The analysts predict the annual average price of lithium will peak at about $54,000 per metric ton this year—nearly nine times higher than it was in 2020. But they believe the price will quickly drop to $11,000 per metric ton by 2024, which is (merely) double the 2020 price. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The reality of what is happening defies that prediction, in the very words quoted here. "They believe"....pathetic. Here is the reality, "Energy is leading the S&P 500, jumping by 57% YTD. Out of the top ten best-performing stocks in the S&P 500 year to date, nine are energy companies" 2 minutes ago, Jay McKinsey said: My purchase was 12 years ago.

Nonsense, Jay, the war merely revealed the underlying strength and power of the fossil fuel sector, which is the only segment still propping up the American economy. Old Biden is hanging on to the fossil fuels sector with the hope of massive tax grabs to help bail out his wild spending plans.

That is why Putin knew it was now or never because the Russian economy was rapidly being ramped out of existence. Now the effort to get rid of fossil fuels has gone into overdrive.

Your logic is counterfactual, Jay, the stock markets are ramping up in the fossil fuel stocks, showing that smart investors are betting on oil and gasoline for the long haul. You yourself park a fossil fuel vehicle in your own driveway, which acknowledges the supremacy of fossil fuels.

What counts is the huge fossil fuel sector which is currently propping up the American economy and providing a taxation target for a desperate American government bent on wild spending sprees. Irresponsible government spending will soon bring about a cleansing result in the midterms. Yes, that pork pie hat which you sport in that picture above is a genuine artifact from pre-WWI fashion.

Once again that analytical mind of yours is in top form. An uncertain future for America’s wind energy capital About 2,200 wind turbines were built in Texas in 2017, more than ever before, as wind industry companies try to snag billions of dollars in federal tax subsidies before they expire at the end of 2019. This has set off a wind rush nationwide, but it’s also set up a fight at the state level to regulate this overlooked industry without clipping its wings. https://publicintegrity.org/politics/state-politics/an-uncertain-future-for-americas-wind-energy-capital/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
