How much natural gas is being sold to Europe causing our prices to go up? Never mention that.
joe biden bragged about shutting down the fossil fuel industry . exorbitant prices are the certain result of those policies . the question is why won’t the media state the obvious ? how expensive will things become before they explain the plain truth that destroying our energy infrastructure is causing runaway inflation?
Despite the economic downturn, I'm happy ☺️. I have been earning $60,200 returns from my $10,000 investment every 13 days
Pandemics/Wars have consequences. Energy Costs are sky high all over the globe.
Joe Biden is directly responsible for this and tens of millions of American's will suffer. But Joe could care less.
Thank God I live in the desert. All you have to do to not have to run the heat here is throw on some sweats.
I miss Trump
Just build dome homes
USA can easy tackle the heating cost
1. Bump up her oil & gas production.
2. Cap her own oil & gas price to maximum $40 or below.
3. Sanction any of US oil & gas producer who do not follow the price cap.
4. Stop exporting US oil & gas to Europe.
Old Man Winter on deck to bring the pain, Joe Bidens designated hitter??
Biden did this!!!
Welcome to the useless fool and shameless pathological liar Joe Biden's new America of misery, chaos, violence, and death.
Gas companies where I live will do an average cost for the year so that you pay the same monthly even during warm months. It eases the burden of winter heating. All you do is call and see if that is available. Getting a second job will not make sense if you are talking about more coming and going in your car. It may be a wash.
My power bill is 25 dollars
I thought Alaska would be the first state to snow.
Use all the furniture from inside congress members' homes as you know they will be empty and in Cancun
Thank you Biden voters 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 you screwed us all 🙄
Joe did this!
Vote blue for nuclear Armageddon. 💥
OPEC has nothing to do with natural gas.
She's white won't qualify for home heating govt help.
There are many warm places to live in . Stop complaining you chose where you live.
While our corrupt government send billions to Nazis in Ukraine.
Hคุณนักข่าวไม่ต้องมาบอกให้ดิฉันไปที่แก็ตสเตชั้นไปเพื่ออะไรละคะเพาะดิฉันไม่คอยให้ใครเออะไรมาให้อีกแล้วละคะเพาะทุกอย่างกำลังเดินทางมาคะฟีด
Im from Alaska. In the winter we are at low 60's on the thermo. Lots of blankets and cozy clothes. Bonfires etc. Try it you won't regret it lol.
ให้ทำลายสะพานระหว่างเคอร์ซอนกับไครแล้วค่อยเคีรย์พื้นที่โดยใช้โดรนนำหน้าค้นหาอาวุธสำคัญของรัสเซียและทำลายสะพานเคิร์ทให้เสียหายเพื่อไม่ให้ทหารทั้งสองฝ่ายมาล้มตายไปมากกว่านี้ถ้าไม่ทำลายมันเจ้าปูตินมันจะส่งประชาชนชาวรัสเซียมาล้มตายเป็นแสนๆเพื่อปกป้องชีวิตของทหารทั้งสองฝ่ายทำลายมันทิ้งไปก่อนก่อนที่ชาวรัสเซียจะมาล้มตายไปมากกว่านี้จากนี้ไปใช้โดรนนำหน้ามีดาวเทียมได้ยิ่งดีเพื่อหาตำแหน่งอาวุธสำคัญของรัสเซียที่อยู่ในสมรภูมิรบอยู่ในตอนนี้
Lolololol, make sure to keep voting for the same people as you did …….I pray Americans go flat broke….stupid voters
No problem here in Hawaii
Second job for a heating cost? This is insane.
The problem is americans heat their houses to as high as 75 degrees all day long. Maybe try heating your house 2X a day. Also maybe try not to heat the house when your not home I'm sure the dog and cat can manage at 60 degrees.
I am sure the elderly, people with underlying conditions, and the handicapper will thank President Biden.
Cut costs by voting out Democrats!!!
As a California resident I look at that bill and I weep. Granted we don't have winters here really, so heating wouldn't be THAT high, but I all I see is peak and off peak rates of roughly 11.4 & 8.8 cents/kWh respectively. While we can have ToU scheduling, most have pure usage where we're given "allowance" of how much power we can use before the rates go up and if my house was all electric (instead of gas for heating) that allowance would be 387 kWh per month which is less than 1/10th the amounts used here. While yeah that looks like a $450 bill if I'm reading it right, if I used that much power it would be about $2000 for a month… so yeah… 11.4cents peak rate versus my cheapest allowance rate which is about 32 cents, up to 400% that allowance and it's about 40 cents, over that and it's 50 cents and 4260 kWh would be about 1100% that allowance, which who knows may even have additional charges tacked on.
120$ a month isn't much
Must be Midterms
Lies. Price Gouging Period.
Why aren’t you talking about Iran? They’re being slaughtered in the streets! Their lives matter! This affects the global community! We are humans! Not just a herd of gullible workers
People should consider building Compost Radiator Heaters. Thats how some Amish heat there homes to a base temperature then they burn wood to get it a little warmer
jokes on you, i use amd pc space heater and gaming machine
Winter is coming!
Joe Biden is behind this
The US has massive energy reserves right so why are prices Spiking..?
