Letter: Joe Biden put me out of small business
2 min readJoe Biden just put me out of small business by suspending new oil and gas leases and drilling permits. I am a petroleum geologist and crank out drilling prospective customers in the Rocky Mountains on federal lands. I worked six yrs to get a prospect all set to drill and Biden just illegally broke the terms of the lease, killing the deal.
This motion was finished under the guise of assisting local climate improve but will not quit just one CO2 molecule from getting produced, as there is practically nothing in the government buy to lower consumption.
No 1 is likely to drive a lot less, fly much less or prevent heating their households or enterprises. The oil need will keep on being the identical and we will need to invest in oil from abroad. This determination is not centered on science, logic or even common feeling. Why do you want to place People out of perform when you are not solving the dilemma?
Oil and gas is a major business enterprise in Colorado and the rest of the Rocky Mountains which are 50% federal lands. The marketplace presents key tax profits from manufacturing and payback royalties from federal lands to our educational facilities. This motion will end result in the reduction of hundreds of thousands of oil marketplace positions and tax base for all the Rocky Mountain States.
With 50% of the potential lands off limitations to investigate, it will really swiftly destroy the market and accomplish very little. Biden’s slogan should be “Make The us Weak Again.”
