It is, however, making a sizable parcel of public lands unavailable for other valuable uses, such as recreation and conservation, at the taxpayer’s loss.
Don’t ignore that the us taxpayers subsidize big oil with billions of dollars, but somehow that’s not socialism.

is it fear mongering, or stating fact, to say that Biden campaigned on the promise of no new leases in federal lands.
when you say that while running for potus, and you win, the price of oil is very likely going up.
but trump bad.
you may have to check into rehab in november.
