    Meanwhile, the rest of the world is laughing as they accelerate their solar installations, because there is more availability with the manufacturers free of American demand, and America falls even further behind.

    But don’t worry, everyone, coal will give us energy independence.

    What an unbelievable own goal you goddamn morons.

      As long as he doesn’t have to pay any more to fund those silly social programs like checks notes food safety and misconduct enforcement. That’s straight up woke bullshit. /s

        The the thing. They are. Americans decided they want to be exploited again.

        MAGA, let’s go back to a time when saw dust was a food stuff.

        MAGA, let’s go back to a time when lead was used to whiten milk.

        MAGA, let’s go back to a time when the local druggist would sell me a magical exlixr to cure the stomach cancer caused by the last magical elixir.

        All that really matters is the price of a barrel of oil. It went from $75 to $64 between April 2nd and April 8th. That makes it hard up make money pumping oil out of fracked horizontal wells. I think below $60 and the turn those off.

        You’d think the face eating leopards would be getting full, but they seem to be just getting started.

          Oh I’m well aware. I’m a victim of the 2015 downturn when prices went from 100+ to 60 dollars.

    The solar company that installed all the solar panels in my new neighborhood is already dealing with potential bankruptcy. I wonder if this will shut them down for good.
