It’s almost as if Democrats want Americans to struggle.
Their manufactured financial crisis are seemingly by design, causing intentional strain on the American pocketbook in order to push their Green New Deal policies. There never appears to be an urgency to correct the problem and, in fact, they continue to enact policies that make the tragedy even worse.
Average Americans were hoping to see some relief at the pump after OPEC announced it would be introducing more oil to the market. However, according to Biden’s Energy Secretary, there will likely be no reprieve.
On Thursday, Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm told reporters she expects drivers to continue paying at least $4 per gallon for the foreseeable future.
“The price of gas is likely to remain above $4 per gallon,” she said, based on data from the Department of Energy.
Granholm previously stated the Biden administration hopes skyrocketing gas prices will be enough for Americans to consider purchasing electric vehicles, which is totally insane if you think about it.

In the past two days alone, the average gas price in America has risen to $4.72 — double the average price during the Trump administration.
But that’s not even the worst of it. Currently, there are 20 states in the nation that are experiencing gas prices exceeding $6 per gallon — and the price is still on the rise. SIX dollars per gallon?!
Biden’s entire administration (and Biden himself) seems to be filled with highly educated, yet incredibly unintelligent and ineffective charlatans who appear to be doing the bidding of globalist world governments as they enact policies that resemble that of Europe.
Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo is another genius.
She was asked to predict when gas prices would begin to level out, to which she appeared not to know.
“No one has a crystal ball,” she said.

Soaring gas prices are one reason inflation has reached a 40-year-high. According to Bloomberg, inflation will cost American households on average an extra $5,200 in 2022, or $433 per month. Inflation will also delay 25% of Americans from retiring, a BMO Real Financial Progress Index survey revealed.
Instead of taking responsibility for the soaring costs, Biden has blamed aides for being unable to reduce the inflation he has fueled with his energy and fiscal policy, according to the Washington Post.
“Biden has privately grumbled to top White House officials over the administration’s handling of inflation, expressing frustration over the past several months that aides were not doing enough to confront the problem directly,” the Post reported.
Biden has also launched a public relations campaign to defend his political vulnerability on the issue. As a part of the PR campaign, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen on Tuesday directly admitted during a press interview that she and the president had failed to accurately assess that inflation would climb to a 40-year-high.
