From Farmers To Office Commuters, Here’s How Biden’s Gas Prices Are Hurting Americans Coast-To-Coast
Like those of most Americans, Dennis Johnson’s fuel costs have doubled. He used to spend $25,000 on fuel, and now he spends $50,000 — every month.
Johnson is a sixth-generation Michigan dairy farmer who also raises beef, corn, alfalfa, oats, and sorghum on 5,000 acres. His operations are extensive, with more than 20 tractors, more than 15 semi-trucks, 50 employees, and a trucking business that transports feed, manure, sand, and the farm’s milk production. The skyrocketing cost of fuel isn’t the first blow to the business either; it’s just hitting them when they’re already down.

These skyrocketing fuel costs are not surprising, given the Biden administration’s radical pushes for green energy and its relinquishing of U.S. energy independence since his very first day in office. But while Biden can try to pretend it’s all Russia’s fault and say he “can’t do much right now,” as he did on Tuesday, millions of Americans across the country are barely keeping their heads above water. The cost of mobility is completely unsustainable.

Mason Gross, who works for sign company Ford Signs, Inc. in coastal Oceanside, California, said diesel fuel prices in that area are pushing $6 per gallon and have gone up almost a dollar in the past week. He said these gas prices are affecting customers, many of which are new businesses in need of signage, because Ford has been forced to raise its prices by hundreds of dollars since it costs so much to drive to each job.

“Directing affecting families” could be used to describe all of Biden’s disastrous policies at home and abroad. Families are directly affected by green energy dreams and empty shelves just as they have been affected by joblessness over vaccine mandates and the deadly withdrawal from Afghanistan.
