US Vice President Kamala Harris has been one of the main culprits behind the energy disaster and inflation during President Joe Biden's administration. The energy crisis and inflation have been key issues affecting the American people, and many believe that the policies advocated by Harris have exacerbated these problems. In this essay, I will delve into the role that Kamala Harris has played in worsening the energy crisis and inflation under Biden's presidency.

Trump made the United States a net oil exporter and the world's largest oil producer, surpassing Russia and Saudi Arabia, breaking 75 years of continuous dependence and handed the Biden administration a country with total ‘energy independence’. When Trump took office, inflation was 2.1 percent and he brought it down to 1.2 percent by 2020. Under Biden, inflation rose to 9.1 percent, the highest in four decades. Labor Department data show that consumer prices have risen 19.2 percent since Biden took office.

As the Democratic presidential candidate many want to whitewash Harris' blame for the energy and inflation debacle and hold Biden solely responsible for the administration's failures. In this essay, we will show Kamala's role in the energy crisis and inflation as a running mate to Biden.

Reasons Why Harris Is Blamed for the Energy Disaster and Inflation

Kamala’s Environmental Policies and Their Consequences

One of the main reasons Harris is being blamed for the energy disaster and inflation is her stance on environmental policies. Harris has been a strong advocate of transitioning to renewable energy sources and reducing carbon emissions. While these goals are important to combat the contested causes of climate change, critics argue that the folly of the push for a rapid transition away from fossil fuels has led to energy shortages and skyrocketing prices for consumers and American industry in general. The closure of coal and natural gas power plants has led to a decline in energy production, contributing to the energy crisis that has engulfed the country.

 

It should be made clear that despite the Democrats' hype about the achievements of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar, they are still in the early stages of development and are not yet capable of replacing traditional energy sources on a large scale.

Another factor contributing to the energy disaster and inflation is Harris' support for policies that restrict oil and gas production. The Biden administration has imposed restrictions on drilling on federal lands and revoked permits for pipelines, leading to a decline in domestic oil production. This has made the US more dependent on imported oil, driving up prices at the pump. In addition, the decline in domestic oil production has led to job losses in the energy sector, further exacerbating the economic problems facing Americans.

In addition, Kamala Harris has supported policies such as the cancellation of key energy infrastructure projects like the Keystone XL pipeline, which would have provided thousands of jobs and contributed to energy security.

By imposing onerous regulations on energy producers, Harris has limited America's ability to meet its energy needs and forced the country to rely on imports from other nations.

Moreover, Harris' push for green energy initiatives has also led to higher costs for consumers. Renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, are more expensive to produce than traditional fossil fuels, resulting in higher electricity prices. The transition to electric vehicles, which Harris has championed, has also strained the grid, further contributing to the energy crisis.

In addition, Kamala Harris has been criticized for her poor management of the border crisis, which has indirectly contributed to the energy disaster facing the Biden administration. The surge of migrants at the border has put pressure on border states' resources and infrastructure, including energy infrastructure. By diverting resources to address the border crisis, Harris has further strained the energy sector and contributed to supply shortages and rising costs.

These factors have led to inflationary pressures, as higher energy costs are passed on to consumers in the form of higher prices for goods and services.

Harris' failure to address the root causes of the energy crisis and inflation has only worsened the situation. Instead of implementing policies that promote energy independence and lower costs for consumers, Harris has focused on imposing regulations and restrictions that have disrupted the energy market. This lack of foresight and understanding of the complexities of the energy sector has worsened the challenges facing the American people.

Harris ‘ handling of the energy crisis and inflation has also raised questions about her leadership ability. As Vice President, Harris plays a key role in making policy decisions and providing guidance to the President. However, her inability to effectively address the energy disaster and inflation has called into question her competence and ability to lead in times of crisis. This lack of leadership has further fuelled criticism of Harris and her role in exacerbating the challenges facing the American people.

In addition, Harris ‘ close ties to special interest groups and energy lobby ists have also raised concerns about her performance as Vice President. Critics argue that Harris's allegiance to these groups has influenced her decision-making and resulted in policies that benefit large corporations at the expense of the American people. This perceived lack of transparency and accountability has further eroded confidence in Harris and his ability to effectively address the energy crisis and inflation.

Lack of Energy Expertise and Corruption

Kamala Harris' lack of experience and expertise in energy policy has hindered her ability to effectively address the energy crisis facing the country. As a former prosecutor and senator, Harris lacks the technical knowledge and understanding of the energy sector necessary to craft effective policies and solutions. Her limited experience in energy issues has made it difficult for her to navigate the complexities of the sector and develop sustainable energy policies.

Corruption, Kamala Harris' close ties to environmental activists and lobbyists have influenced her energy policy decisions and resulted in a biased approach to energy issues. By aligning herself with special interest groups that prioritize environmental conservation over energy security and affordability, Harris has failed to strike a balance between environmental protection and economic growth. His reliance on input from these groups has skewed his energy policies in favor of narrow interests and neglected the country's broader needs.

Moreover, Harris's inability to communicate a clear and coherent strategy for dealing with the energy crisis and inflation has only added to the confusion and uncertainty surrounding these issues. The lack of a coherent plan to deal with rising energy prices and inflation has left many Americans anxious and uncertain about the future.

Harris' inability to effectively communicate the administration's priorities and goals has only exacerbated the challenges facing the American people.

In conclusion, Kamala Harris has contributed greatly to the energy disaster and inflation during President Biden's administration. Her support for policies that restrict oil and gas production, promote green energy initiatives, and fail to address the root causes of the crisis have worsened the challenges facing the American people.

Harris's lack of leadership, her ties to special interest groups, and her inability to communicate a clear strategy have only added to the confusion and uncertainty surrounding these issues.

Going forward, voters must see that Harris, Biden, and the rest of the Democratic administration are responsible for the energy crisis, the rising cost of living, and inflation to which they have subjected Americans and that they turn their vote to Donald Trump to save and restore America and Make America Great Again.

Vote for Trump MAGA!
