Democrats Proposed Ban Would Kill Millions of Jobs

A proposal by Democrats to end fracking would kill millions of jobs.

According to The Washington Free Beacon:

A proposed fracking ban put forward by leading Democratic presidential candidates would have a devastating impact on U.S. jobs, energy independence, and even national security, according to several studies.

Reports from the American Petroleum Institute, Independent Petroleum Association of America, and U.S. Chamber of Commerce painted a stark picture of the economic fallout from ending fracking, a process which has transformed the United States into the top oil and natural gas producer in the world.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.), Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.), and Sen. Kamala Harris (D., Calif.) are among eight remaining 2020 candidates who have called for an all-out ban on fracking, despite the fact that the drilling method has put the United States on a path to energy independence. The practice has also led to cleaner energy alternatives and lower carbon emissions, a key goal of climate change activists.

Fracking, also known as hydraulic fracturing, is a drilling and extraction method of releasing oil and gas from underground shale rocks, using high-pressure liquid to break them apart.

The economy is always a main debate topic and this type of proposal won’t be too popular among voters.

I’m NOT a Democrat, but it would also save the planet. Fracking allows toxic chemicals to enter the water supply, poisoning the water we need to survive. It also enters the water in wells that people rely on for their water supply. Those who support fracking support the extinction of life on the planet. Do some research before you say I’m wrong. Fracking is not good for our planet!! But once again, big oil supports it and it makes them big $$$$$.

Leave it up to the Dumbo-crats to try to destroy jobs!! What to do? Veto the bill, should it come through. But the Major win would be to PROVE THEM TO BE ABSOLUTELY INCORRECT!! Make them look as DUMB as they really are. If you have the proof, then you can win the argument. ALSO, Run a Poll, online from every source you can find…without the Dumbo’s interfering. Anything to make them look uninformed.

The democRATS will do anything to oppose what Trump has achieved. so if they win in 2020 they plan to undo what president Trump has accomplished when he reversed obamers sanctions against the oil companies drilling for oil and delete a lot of jobs for Americans, just another reason to vote a straight republican ticket in order to save the workers who depend on the oil industries for their jobs
