It's really bad to get off Russian oil without opening up our own oil fields. This is from Glenn Beck.



You can't just cut off Russian oil without replacing it, preferably with American oil, because it's not just gas that's affected.



Even if you're willing to pay higher prices for gas (as so many virtue-signaling elites say they are,) what about all the other things that barrel of oil is used to make? The price of everything will go up. Get ready to start hearing a lot about "demand destruction." Demand destruction occurs when a commodity is priced so high that consumers are forced to find alternative ways to use less of it.



Only about half of each barrel of oil is turned into gasoline. The other half is turned into everyday everyday items such as solvents, ink, floor wax, ballpoint pins, football cleats, insecticides, boats, sweaters, upholstery, bicycle tires, sports car bodies, nail polish, fishing lures, perfumes, golf bags, tires, dresses, cassettes, dishwasher parts, toolboxes, shoe polish, transport transparent tape, petroleum jelly, caulking, motorcycle helmets, CD players, faucet parts, clothes lines, curtains, food preservatives, baseballs, basketballs, soap, vitamin capsules, antihistamines, purses, shoes, dashboards, cortisone, deodorant, shoelace aglets, putty, dyes, pantyhose, refrigerants, linings, rubber, rubbing alcohol, life jackets, percolators, skis, TV cabinets, shag rugs, electrician's tape, paint, epoxy, car battery cases, tool racks, mops, slacks, insect repellent, oil filters, hair coloring, fertilizers, yarn, umbrellas, diesel fuel, motor oil, bearing grease, roofing, toilet seats, fishing rods, lipstick, denture adhesives, linoleum, ice cube trays, synthetic rubber, speakers, plastic wood, electric blankets, glycerin, dice, fishing boats, rubber cement, tennis rackets, nylon rope, candles, trash bags, house paint, water pipes, hand lotion, roller skates, surfboards, shampoo, wheels, paint rollers, shower curtains, safety glasses, aspirin luggage, guitar strings, antifreeze, football helmets, awnings, eyeglasses, clothes, toothbrushes, ice chests, footballs, combs, CDs, DVDs, paint brushes, detergents, tents, balloons, vaporizers, heart valves, crayons, parachutes, telephones, enamel, pillows, dishes, cameras, anesthetics, artificial turf, artificial limbs, bandages, hair curlers, folding doors, model cars, dentures, cold cream, movie film, soft contact lenses, drinking cups, ammonia, shaving cream, car enamel, fan belts, refrigerators, golf balls, and toothpaste, to name a few.



There's going to be demand destruction. So, if you thought that there was already a problem with supply and demand, you haven't seen nothing yet.



So when you see the price of everything going up, just remember, the people who are leading you to this are the ones that say we have to get rid of fossil fuels. Less than half of each barrel goes to gasoline. The rest of that barrel goes to make everything else we have grown accustomed to. Everything else. So, when your friends tell you that the price [of gas] is worth it — really?



"You cannot disconnect the price of oil, and the price of gasoline, from the price of food or plastic or anything else that you are used to buying. Demand destruction is coming, and it is coming fast."

Stephen Colbert doesn't care about the high price of gas because he drives a Tesla. This is an energy crisis, not an oil crisis. Nickel used in electric cars went up $67 in one day. China and Russia control a lot of the world's rare earth metals.



Colbert also doesn't care about the rising costs of everything made from petroeum. For a guy that thinks he is so smart he cannot see the connection between the rising cost of gas and the rising cost of food. He is rich and hates the working class.

Isn't he just an actor??

He hosts a comedy-news show. He makes a shitload of money so that is why he thinks he is better than people with real jobs.

None of this affects prog money. They do not give two shits. They like that people who work for a living are really struggling.

He gets paid tons of money for it. Don't forget that. That is why he knows what is best for the proletariat.
