Stupidocrisy: Biden True to His Word :: By Bill Wilson

During the campaign, Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden said he was going to shut down the petroleum and coal industries, stop the border wall, and re-up the US in the Paris Climate Accords. Within his first week in office, he did most all those things and more through executive orders.

The stop-work order on the keystone pipeline killed 11,400 jobs. The American Petroleum Institute says halting oil and gas drilling on federal lands will cost a million jobs. The Chamber of Commerce estimates the Paris Climate reentry will cost 6.5 million jobs. All in all, the new president may have put over 7.5 million Americans out of work in his first week. Plus, his actions raised fuel costs, which raises the cost of everything.

On January 18, just before Joe Biden took office, the national average of gasoline at the pump was $2.464 per gallon. On March 1, it was $2.796, an increase of 33 cents per gallon or about 12% in only 40 days. Similarly, in January of 2009, just before Barack Obama was inaugurated, pump prices were $1.74 per gallon and rose to an average of $2.79 ($1.04 higher), and they peaked in 2013 at $3.53 and ebbed to a $2.14 per gallon average in 2016. I can actually remember paying over $4.05 per gallon several times during the Obama years.

Let us also remember that Obama’s economic policy increased unemployment to 9.6%, and the only reason it decreased was that 94.7 million Americans had given up and dropped out of the workforce. There were record numbers on welfare, and the economy grew at only 2.1% per year.

Under just four years of Donald Trump, the economy grew at an average of 2.5% per year, but the last year was mostly under COVID lockdown. Under the first three years of Trump, unemployment declined to 3.5%. Democrats and the mainstream news media like to say that Trump’s final employment report was far worse than any president, but they fail to say that the COVID lockdown turned Trump’s employment record upside down. Prior to the lockdown, the number of employed Americans broke 25 records, reaching an all-time high of 158.8 million. More Black folk were employed than in any time in US history.

All this is gone as Democrats lock down the economy, kill jobs, and vote to give you some small payment as a consolation.

The man comes out and says he is going to kill the oil and coal industries and do all these things that will financially harm every American. The city population areas vote him in anyway. Then he does it, costing us all, especially those poor fools who voted this guy into office.

Proverbs 18:2 says, “A fool has no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.”

You would think that when a guy says he is going to put you out of work, raise your taxes, and his actions will raise the cost of living for everyone, that people would understand his words. But as Proverbs says, a fool has no delight in understanding. Say it with me… Stupidocrisy. Biden was true to his word. I smack my forehead and repeat: Stupidocrisy.

Stupidocrisy: Global warming and Texas :: By Bill Wilson

Last week, Texas was in a state of emergency because of no energy. People were freezing in their homes. The homeless were suffering. Those in retirement and nursing homes were suffering. People were experiencing carbon monoxide poisoning while trying to keep warm. A whole lot of suffering going on. The savior of the universe—green energy—had a major fail—it didn’t work.

The windmills froze up. There wasn’t enough sun to power up the batteries. Texas energy hit the wall. Texas energy had a great fall. All the green horsepowers and all the green prophets couldn’t heat Texas back up again. So, what did these green prophets do? They blamed it all on global warming/climate change. Stupidocrisy.

When all else fails, blame it on global warming.

How many years have we seen the prophets of green, like Al Gore, give conferences predicting the world was going to end because of global warming? Then he would have to trudge through freezing temperatures and knee-high snow from the gangway of his private jet to the limo that delivered him to the conference.

Just last week, I read a story where a “scientist,” who was paid to prove global warming, had predicted a decade ago that babies born in London then would never see snow by the time they reached ten years of age. Bill Gates wants to ban eating hamburger and steak because cattle contribute to carbon emissions that cause global warming. But he and Gore and others like them sure don’t lead by example as they fly around the world in their carbon-emitting jets.

Oh, yes, then there are the taxes.

The way to stop global warming is to tax the bejeebies out of American citizens. We get to pay for China polluting the air. And, of course, the more tax money we pay to reduce carbon emissions, the longer we can live on this planet. Tax money changes the climate.

Another way to stop global warming is to end the use of natural resources for energy. Putting people out of work ends global warming. No fuel, no cars, no global warming. No fuel, no heating, no global warming. Meanwhile, these prophets of doom, I guess, are happy that their green experiment in Texas is having a big fail. After all, Texans are bigots and haters and global warming deniers because they voted for Trump.

The “greeners” all have passionately preached a false doctrine that you and I will melt the polar ice caps and destroy the world if we don’t reduce our carbon footprint, while at the same time they live elaborate lifestyles with private jets and limos. It’s the height of hypocrisy.

To think that anything related to climate, even their green energy that doesn’t work, is caused by global warming is stupid. Hence…say it with me…Stupidocrisy!

I am all in favor of being a good steward of this earth. I also believe the promise the Lord gave Noah in Genesis 8:21-22, “Neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done; While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.”

But, of course, they believe in science, not God, but that’s yet another Stupidocracy for later.
