Bernie Submits Bill To Ban Fracking in the US Senate (Must Want Democrats to Lose)

We’ve had a thing or two to say about fracking. Good things. Not just to piss off Democrats who bought in on the Left’s lies about this valuable process and resource. We (rightly) think Fracking has been great for America. Bernie Sanders wants to ban it.

The bill was introduced on Tuesday and is titled “a bill to ban the practice of hydraulic fracturing, and for other purposes,” according to the Library of Congress, though the text of the legislation was not available on the site.

Some Democrats in New Hampshire tried to ban fracking in the granite state. No one likes cheap abundant energy. (Even the GOP Gov. Opposes offshore drilling.) But their bill would have banned all hydraulic fracturing including for wells as in for water. It failed. And yes, Bernie’s bill would fail in this Senate. But that’s not why he submitted it.

He’s posturing for far-left primary support. And, hopes of having his bill in play when he becomes President and the Democrats take the Senate.

When will that be? Well, probably not 2020. Bernie’s bill is going to piss off a lot of folks in the states that benefit from Fracking like Pennsylvania, Ohio, the Dakotas. Indiana, Michigan, the Virginias. The entire south and center of the country.

Twenty States are fracking. Four more will be soon including Florida, Illinois, North Carolina, and Nevada.

There are 15 more states where it’s possible but not currently economically feasible but if anything is true about fracking it is the effort to make the process cheaper, quieter, better, faster, and with a smaller footprint.

In other words, banning fracking is not a fringe issue that benefits a few knuckle-dragging mouth-breathers in flyover country.

But the far-left is all in on the fake-news, lies, and disinformation (paid for by Russia and Saudi Arabia) so I say let them be who they are and watch the voters fall where they may. Probably on the right, because Fracking has turned America into an energy superpower.

Russia, Iran, Venezuela, and the Saudis would love for the Democrats to win and ban fracking. They stand to make billions and put us back on the dependency hook.

Fracking creates (good paying) Jobs, affordable fuel, heat, electricity, tax revenue, and economic stability.

If Democrats want to run around yelling, raise taxes, add trillions in debt, kill off thousands of jobs, and make life more expensive every day, let them. We’re happy to share that.
