I don't like illegal immigration more than any other staunch conservative, but I also understand macro-economics.

putting it simply, a nation's GDP directly correlates to its population size, birth rates are falling in the entire developed world, so an influx of "citizens" to the U.S. is definitely going to unbalance the status quo today, but regardless of what ideology occupies the oval office, people are going to try to make money, wherever they are.

If your population isn't rising, then your GDP isn't rising either. Opening the gates to illegal immigrants is not ideal, its the same thing as taking the nation off of the gold standard to a fiat currency, thats how the US became an economic powerhouse overnight.

but uh, the biden admin isnt doing anything more than the trump admin did, obviously circumstances were different, russian oil imports over the last year were like 3% and while they have not banned the import, traders have been advised to avoid those sources by every authority, before you completely cut off one supply you have to build other sources, otherwise you'll have "NO GAS" signs at the pumps, and that can't happen this close to '22 primaries, especially not with Brandon polling at 37% its existential politics.

im dangerously close to defending democrats, don't make me do this!

Under Orange Super Prez we were energy independent. Gas was cheap.

Biden shut down keystone and waived sanctions on Nord Stream 2

Curiously, Biden has not sanctioned Russian Energy when Putin went Cujo on Ukraine

Listen here Democratic pedos, Trump withheld hundreds of millions in military aid while extorting the country's president for dirt on his political opponent to help Ukraine stand up to Putin.

you're right, gas was cheap under trump, its always cheap when a republican is in office.

the thing is tho, its easy to drive energy prices down in the short term, but the market has to rebound eventually, otherwise the cumulative losses become a mountain.

then you factor in issues that aren't economic, like political winds and favors, and the issues surrounding energy cost and production gets very very murky, so when questioned, all you get are politician answers.

im not saying i like this, its just reality. from the hot dog vendor on the street, all the way up to OPEC, there are factors that govern pricing outside the bounds of cash between hands.
