According to a House Republican, despite President Biden’s initial assertions, his pursuit of solar and wind energy actually entails rewarding Chinese tool makers, which in turn encourages slave labor and pollution.
Mike Gallagher, a Republican from Wisconsin who serves on the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, talked about the rising inflation and energy issues in the United States from the perspective of what Biden wants to achieve while reducing domestic fossil fuel output.
“Instead of going to Texas, to Pennsylvania and Oklahoma and unleashing the true innovation of American energy production, which is far cleaner than our adversaries, he’s going all around the world begging Venezuela for hydrocarbons, trying to get Iranian crude on the international market.”
Regarding the environment, Gallagher claimed that Biden is allowing China to control the supply chain by producing solar panels, polysilicon, and subcomponents, which runs counter to his assertions that the more expensive fuel source is worthwhile.
China is accountable for the world’s worst human rights and environmental abuses, and this administration’s policies are actually enabling Chinese misbehavior, he said. “Ask yourself, how does China make these so cheaply? Because they use slave labor and coal power – China is responsible for the biggest humanitarian and environmental abuses in the world, and this administration’s policies are actually increasing Chinese malfeasance,” he said.
It is really ludicrous. We must depend on the ascent of American energy and unleash its full potential. It will aid working-class Americans with their soaring energy costs and be better for the environment.
Gallagher continued by saying that the Biden administration’s efforts in the energy industry and other areas have demonstrated time and again how out of touch it is with the suffering that Americans are experiencing economically.
He referred to the White House’s 2021 assertion that its programs reduced the price of an Independence Day picnic by 16 cents as an out-of-date gimmick and said that, in light of inflation and the $5 per gallon 87-octane gasoline, now is the time to feel the pain.
