Biden's wrong energy policy

 Daily Wire:

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon slammed the Biden administration in an interview this week over how the U.S. has responded to the energy crisis that has been worsened by Russia’s war in Ukraine by saying the U.S. has taken the wrong approach and the country needs to step up and “play a real leadership role.”

Dimon made the remarks during an CNBC interview this week when he was asked about how worried he was about Europe this winter given the war in Ukraine and the energy crisis on the continent.

“Well, I think we’re getting energy completely wrong, which is, you know, ever since this war started, you know that Europe is going to have a problem,” Dimon said. “And that it was pretty predictable that Putin was going to cut off some gas and some oil, and oil price would go up and, by the way, for the climate folks here, it’s made the climate worse because people have this bad assumption that higher oil prices and gas prices reduce consumption, reduce co2. No. Poor nations, India, China, Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam, are turning back on coal plants, as are rich nations called Germany, Netherlands, France.”

“We have it completely backwards, and in my view, America should have been pumping oil and gas,” Dimon continued. “And it should have been supported, you know, we’re trying to have our cake and eat it, too, a little bit. And so you have the, you have the problem this winter, which it sounds like they’ve got enough supply to get through this winter. But we have a longer term problem now, which is the world is not producing enough oil and gas to reduce coal, make the transition, create security for people. So I would put it in a critical category.”

“And this should be treated almost as a matter of war at this point, nothing short of that,” he concluded on the matter. “And obviously, America needs to play a real leadership role. America is the swing producer, not Saudi Arabia. And we should have gotten that right starting in March. It’s almost too late to get it right. Because obviously these are longer term investments.”

The global warming crowd has gotten "climate change" wrong for decades.  Their anti-energy policies have made things worse and made the grid less reliable.
